Joan Arlene Walsh

December 3, 1942 — January 19, 2025

Joan Arlene Walsh, aged 82, passed away on Sunday, January 19, 2025 surrounded by her family as she left this Earth and entered the Gates of Heaven. She was the daughter of the late Arthur and Edith Morgan of Sparta, New Jersey.

Joan was a resident of Pownal, Vermont. She leaves behind two sisters, one brother, her loving daughter Angela, as well as her grandchildren: Ryan, Ashley and Samantha, and one great-granddaughter, Natalie.

Joan was predeceased by her husband of fifty years, Joseph Matthew Walsh in 2017. The couple were high school sweethearts who met at Sparta High School in New Jersey.

Joan was a traditional homemaker who loved the role of caring for her family. She enjoyed volunteering at her church and the library. Joan was creative and used her skills to paint and make jewelry.

Socializing with friends and family gave Joan great pleasure. One of her hobbies was cooking. She collected many cookbooks over the years and had fun trying different recipes. Joan’s favorite holiday was Christmas; she loved everything to do with this special day.
