Joan Catherine Davis

Joan (Jones) (Lewis) Davis passed away January 21, 2021, in her 80th year, at Shannex, Lily Court in Saint John.  She was born in Shannon, New Brunswick on March 13, 1941 to May (Upshall) Jones and J. Wesley Jones.

She is survived by her four sons; Peter (Tammy) of Rothesay, Michael (Michelle) of Calgary, Scott (Tammy) of Rothesay and Troy of Musquash.  She was Nana to nine grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.  She is also survived by her four siblings; Dianne, Sandra, Heather and Trevor and several nieces and nephews.

She was predeceased by her parents, her two daughters, Sondra and Kelly, her granddaughter Grace as well as her two former husbands, Jack Lewis and George (Sonny) Davis.

Mom worked as an administrative assistant at White Trucks, Downey Ford, Centracare and the Saint John Regional Hospital all while raising 6 children.  Later in life she worked at Colwells and Samuel & Co.  She loved the sport of curling her whole life and was fortunate to score an eight-ender with Jack and Glen & Karen Gibbons during the City and District mixed-play in the mid 70's.  A highlight for her was to skip her team to the NB Senior Ladies Championship.  She loved to give back to Thistle St. Andrews Curling Club by introducing and teaching new players all about the game.

In Mom's younger years, she loved to summer at the Cabins in the Pines on the Washadamoak Lake or over in PEI to visit her family in Charlottetown and Bunbury.  Later in life she fulfilled two wishes when she travelled to Paris and Hawaii.

The boys would like to thank the staff at Shannex Lily Court, Millidgeville, for all of your care and compassion shown to Mom and to us while she resided there.  We could not be there to hold Mom's hand but would like to thank Julie and Alicia for holding her hand for us.  You are very special people.

Arrangements are under the direction of Fundy Funeral Home, 230 Westmorland Road (646-2424). ***Due to public health’s pandemic restrictions and to maintain everyone’s safety: services will be held at a later date.*** Donations in memory of  Joan may be made to the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation or the St. George Community Living Centre.
