Joan was born in Boston and raised in Quincy; she was a graduate of North Quincy High School.  Joan was a devoted Catholic and for many years a daily communicant of St. Francis of Assisi Parish in Braintree.  Joan’s smile would always be sure to light up a room and her kind heart was always seeing the good in people. She enjoyed cooking and entertaining for family and friends, gardening and tending to her flowers were her favorite pastimes.  Most of all, Joan loved spending time with her family who were truly the cornerstone of her life.  She will be missed by all who had the pleasure to have known and loved her.
