Joan May (Snow) Fennessey joined her loving husband, Carl, in Heaven on January 15, 2017 at the age of 83. The daughter of Albert and Marcella Snow, she was born in Montreal, Quebec on May 19, 1933. She was the beloved younger sister of Violet Allardice, who currently lives in Kelowna, BC. She was predeceased by her brothers, Don and Alfred Snow.

She loved being their Nanny, and she became grandmotherly to many of her caregivers. Her nurses loved her, and she loved them.
