BISHOP, Joan Anne
December 22, 1935 – November 6, 2021
Peacefully, on Saturday November 6, in her 86th year. Predeceased by her parents, Joseph and Anna Simpson, survived by Derek, her loving husband of 62 years. She raised sons, Douglas (Sophie) and Brian (Helen). Four grandchildren enriched her life: Joseph, Valerie, Fiona and Laura. Joan was a farm girl, growing up on 100 acres near Elfrida. She loved nature and animals, especially her horses and dogs. Her first love was her family for whom she stopped teaching in Binbrook in order to raise. She joined a book club in Caledonia in 1980 and enjoyed the members, their book choices and discussions for 41 years. She also volunteered at the Caledonia food bank for many years. The Bishop family appreciates the excellent care Joan received whilst in hospital in Welland and Hagersville. As per Joan's wishes, a private family interment will take place. Arrangements entrusted to Miller Funeral Chapel, Caledonia.
