Joan Marguerite Carroll
April 7, 2017
Carroll, Joan Marguerite, age 85 of Lower Sackville, NS, passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by loving family on April 7th, 2017. Born in Sherbrooke, Guysborough Co., NS. The daughter of George & Naomi 'Gertrude' Perkins.
Wife and partner, Super Mom extraordinaire, confidant, loyal friend, lover of all animals, remembering her BB cat of many lives . Butterflies, her connection to her son Joey who she is now peacefully with. Always ready to hit the road for an adventure. And as for golf, don’t even mention Tiger! She just loved the game and played it as Masters champ. A multi-tasker, pies, seafood chowder, the loaves and the fishes was pretty much Joanie’s mantra. Joan’s greatest testament to life was her uncanny ability to love and treat everyone as equals. All who have been part of Joan’s life, how lucky we are. And lets not forget the finger puppets that Joanie created, that made so many children happy. 'Happiness is not a goal...it's a by-product of a life well lived'.
