Joanne R. Overzet
May 12, 1935 – October 25, 2024
With heavy hearts, we share that Joanne passed away peacefully on Friday, October 25th, 2024, at Oak Ridges Hospice in Port Perry, with her family by her side, holding her hands.
Joanne bravely faced a swift and aggressive battle with pancreatic cancer, her strength and grace evident to the end. Our grief is profound, and words cannot express how deeply she will be missed. We find solace in knowing her suffering was brief, and peace came gently.
Joanne was a devoted wife to John B., loving mom to Deanne (Dale) and James (Erin), and beloved Oma to Samantha, Conor, and the students at BVPS. We are grateful to Our Heavenly Father for the many beautiful years we shared, filled with cherished memories, laughter, and love.
A heartfelt thank you to the compassionate hospice team and volunteers at Oak Ridges, whose care brought comfort in her final days. We are eternally grateful for their kindness and support.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Joanne’s memory to Oak Ridges Hospice would be appreciated.
