My sister in-law Joan had humor,compassion,loved children & animals. Had her ups & downs, always did her best to move forward in life. Memories: Ron & I visited in April. All dined at Antler’s, their favorite restaurant. Shared Ron & Joan’s Brooklyn/Port Monmouth,NJ youth. Mine: Time w/her & Luke in TX starting @ Starting Gate & my home in New Braunfels, they married on the front lawn. Joan called me “Hazel”. Luke made porch swing,etc. Joan made a stuffed Bunny (still have it). We cooked NJ pasta vs Tx grub. “Staying In The Loop”! Stories,babysitting,families,holidays,laughs, hugs, joys & sorrrows. Now both are gone. Miss calling u on wkends sending u updates & pics, ur laugh.

Beverly, John, and Beckums, how happy I was to meet Joan so long ago. Immediately, she was special in our lives for her acceptance and love for our Gentry, which at the time was a tall order for most people as you well know!! 🙂 She is our Gramma Joan to this day and forevermore. You and your family are in my prayers that you may feel comfort, peace, and strength. I’ll be in touch Beverly…love to all..and love to sweet Joan… The Walkers
In loving memory of Joan Mayfield, we are saddened by the sudden loss of your Mom Bev. We have been privileged to know her through you for all these years. She is alive as always to us through all the kindnesses and love you shared about her, for her and learned from as well. It was beautiful to see such a close and abiding relationship between Mother and Daughter, your love for her was inspiring and deeply noted by us. We send peace and love to you, your family and friends as the grief journey unfolds. All our love, jan and stanley
So sorry Bev, Love you, Mouse

I miss Joan already, I’ve been thinking of our early days in N.J. “THE COUNTRY”.I feel the warm memories of” THE STAND, RITTERS and Bachstadts and Leonardo High School. All great memories. I will pray for her and her family. God bless all. From your cousin James.

I’m so sorry about Joan. I loved her as a sister and will certainly miss her. See you soon
We were all blessed to have known for so many years. When I met her I asked her if she was from England!!!She got a kick out of that! We have many pictures and memories of her and Luke through all these years and I cherish them……Heaven needed another Angel!
