Joan was born on the family farm on October 16, 1931, and left us on July 26, 2019 to reunite with family and friends who departed before her. Joan was predeceased by her parents Nick and Mary Yachyshen, husband Mike, grandson Brett and her son Bernard. Left to cherish her memory are her children Judi (Ed), Hope, Doris, and Michael (Anita); daughter-in-law Bonnie; grandchildren Nicholas (Pam), Jordan (Adele), Royce (Elaine), Evan (Carly), Ashley (Phil), Noah, Emma and Leah; great grandchildren Gwen, Alice, Oliver, Isabella, Jase, Madison, Lexi, Hayden, Savannah and Gabriel; and constant companion Tika. She loved living on the farm and being a farmer. She loved her animals and passed that love to her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Joan was a member of many community organizations and of course her church. Midnight mass was her favorite. She loved sports of all kinds and always the debate after. We were all honoured to have received one or more of the many knitted or crocheted projects she made. Family was the greatest for her. She loved her family reunions and the havoc that insued. Joan was always up for a game of cards. If you came to visit there was always food (pork chops) and coffee on the stove. She could take a good joke and also dish them out. Joan always took time to chat with whom ever was around. Till we meet again! Donations in memory of Joan may be made to Yorkton SPCA, 79 7th Ave South, Yorkton, SK. S3N 3V1
