Joan Tyrell

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Joan Tyrell, who passed away in her home on December 16, 2024. Joan was a beloved mother, cherished friend, and an embodiment of selflessness.

Joan is survived by her three boys: her two sons, Andrew and Marlon, and her nephew Zak, who she loved as her own. Despite facing her own challenges, Joan had a remarkable way of uplifting others, always finding ways to help those in need. Her generosity and kindness knew no bounds, and she will be remembered as someone who gave endlessly, even when she had little herself.

Her unwavering compassion touched the lives of everyone who knew her, leaving a legacy of love and empathy that will endure forever. Joan will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all whose lives were enriched by her presence.

The family invites friends and loved ones to celebrate Joan’s life. A viewing and wake visitation will be held on Friday, December 27th, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM and 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Ward Funeral Home, 4671 Highway 7, Woodbridge. The funeral service will follow on Saturday, December 28th, beginning at 11:00 AM in the Ward Chapel with burial afterward at Beechwood Cemetery.

For those unable to attend in person, an online link will be provided to watch the service virtually.

Rest in peace, Joan. Your giving spirit and loving heart will forever inspire those you leave behind.
