The family would like to give a special shout out to the wonderful, caring healthcare providers, team and family at Reachview. Her most favorite role was being Nanny to her grandchildren and was the very best. She was the most caring and giving person. She was so loved by all the family and anyone she met. And subsequently by their children, Lucy, Eddie, Noah, Raphy but unfortunately did not meet Indigo. Lauraine (David) and their girls, Rachel and Kate. Peter (deceased) and Olga, and their children Philippa, James and Nick. The high point of her year was her annual visit back to Norfolk, England that she so loved, to be welcomed by her niece Jane and her children Mark, Tanya and Karl and grandchildren Ashley, Jade, Kelly, Daniel, Amy, and Josh. Joan loved playing scrabble daily and bridge with the ladies every week. She returned to the working world in her 70’s at the Bombay Company when most people would have retired. She volunteered for decades at Union Villa, making crafts and raising money for them. Joan’s hands were rarely still and she was a highly skilled crafter. She and her family lived in England for many years. She was educated at Lawrence school in India/Thetford Grammar School Thetford Norfolk post 1947. Joan was born in Wellington, India on Januwhere her father was stationed in the British Indian Army. Survived by dear and lifelong friend, Inez Dobslaw and her cousin Evie, both of whom had had a piece of her heart.

Predeceased by brothers Teddy (Eileen) and Peter, father Frank Burton and mother Florence Torkildsen. Survived by sister, Lauraine and sister in law Olga. Great-grandmother to Owen, Piper, Everett and Annie, and John. Grandmother to Joe, Ian, Alysha, PJ, Ryan, and Eddie. She will be lovingly remembered by her children Alison (Willie), Martin and Peter (Lisa).
