Joan Elizabeth Kelly Hall |
Joan Elizabeth Kelly Hall, born on September 12th 1924, passed away on January 29, 2015 due to complications arising from a good case of too many birthdays.
Joan was born and raised in Galesburg, IL, and attended Knox College and Galesburg School of Nursing. She married her soul mate, Earl Hall (Okie) of Tulsa in 1944, moved to Seattle in 1962 and never looked back. Joan made her home in Richmond Beach for over 40 years. She was a wonderful mother to Dennis (Madye), Baby Perry, Joanne (Dick), Carol (Steve), and; grandmother to Chris (Amanda), Kilmeny, Tom (Annie), Lee, Mitchell and Jillian; and great-grandmother to Mason and Clover.
Joan volunteered over 4000 hours, continuing to give back into her 90’s. She was loved by many, and more than 60 friends and family members celebrated Joan’s 90th birthday with her. She was an avid book reader, hug giver, joke maker, animal lover, gardener, and bridge player.
Please send any gifts to Shoreline Children’s Hospital Bargain Boutique (her most recent volunteer site) or Hyde Shuttle Volunteer Transportation for Seniors.
