Joelle Donovan

Our hearts are broken to have to announce the passing of our cherished mother Joelle. She wore many hats but her role as Mom, Nana, Mama J and Nana J were her most prized titles.

 The way Joelle fought this disease with strength & love was a testament to her fighting spirit and fierce devotion to her family.

 She leaves behind her two devoted sons, Dan (Sheila) and John (Ann) and her precious grandchildren Quentin, Scotia, Kalem, Kove and Emma Lea.

 She was a beloved hairdresser and her clients were more than just clients, they were her friends.

 John and Dan would like to thank the Nipissing Serenity Hospice and the nurses and PSWs who gave them and Joelle the best compassionate care.

 A special thank you to Dr. Jinnah for her guidance, support and care.

 Family receiving friends on Wednesday, May 20 from 5pm–7pm at Hillside Funeral Services, 362 Airport road in North Bay.

 In lieu of flowers, donations in Joelle’s name to The Nipissing Serenity Hospice would be greatly appreciated. Online condolences can be made at www.hillsidefuneral.ca

 The hummingbirds have arrived Mama J, and Jesus is waiting to see you.
