Such a wonderful, funny and caring lady! So sorry for all of the family that the goodbye seems to happen so quickly but thankfully, the special memories, stories and lessons continue on. I have been thinking of you all so much over these past days. Love the Murrays Point tribute plan....Joan contributed so much to comfort others in life and the families of so many who had passed on. She will not be forgotten.

Family of Joan Murray Our sincere condolences is sent to you on the passing of Joan. I (Bob) fondly remember my visits with Joan and Lyall when they discussed with me their well managed cranberry operation. They provided detailed information of the development of their cranberry operation known as Turkey Brand Cranberries in 1900, now recorded in Nova Scotia Cranberry History 1872-2000. Joan provides many pleasant memories to those who remember her. With God's Blessing, Bob & Pat Murray Truro

To all the family, our deepest sympathy. We have such wonderful memories of our many visits over the years to Barney's River, when Joan always welcomed us with open arms and a nice warm bowl of her home made chowder. She'll be a tremendous loss to so many people that she showed genuine care for and we'll never forget her. We'll miss her so much. RIP Joan.

Having not visited Nova Scotia as much as an adult as when I was younger means my memories of my cousin Joan are from a less recent time. I remember her seeming to always be smiling and so the photo shown is entirely appropriate. We always miss those who have touched our lives.

The angels looked down from heaven one night They searched for miles afar, And deep within the distance They could see a shining star. They knew that very instant That the star was theirs to gain, So they took you up to heaven Forever to remain. Look down on us from heaven Keep us free from hurt and pain, You'll always be within my heart Until we meet again..........................................My Friend I will miss you forever and Always

Our deepest sympathies to dear Sarah, Josh, Nathan and Hank on the passing of your 'Ma'. Joan was my head nurse and mentor at the Aberdeen many years ago. She was a passionate woman in everything she did. One of the hardest working women I've ever known. A pioneer in many ways. A respected lady. Hugs to you across the mountains, Debbie & Bob

My condolences to Helen, Wallace & Donald Peter & their families. I have many fond memories of going to Merigomish & spending time with Joan. Her passion for helping other people will be legendary. Joan helped care for my Dad (Ken Mellish) when he got sick & was a major shoulder of support when Mom (Maude Mellish) passed away. It will be hard to travel to Merigomish & not drop in for a visit. You will be missed very much!
