Joanne Patricia Meyer, age 84, a retired secretary of the Poway Unified School District, passed away Feb. 22, 2020.

Born Sept. 25, 1935, in Vancouver, B.C. She had been a Henderson, Nev., resident since 2013. After her retirement she began a new adventure by traveling and becoming an avid quilter. She was especially happy when the opportunity arose and the travels included visiting with her many friends and family along the way.

She was preceded in death by her parents Marcus and Katheryn Murphy, and infant brother Michael.

Survivors include her husband, Ken; brothers Richard (Lynn) and Gary (Mary) Murphy; four children, Barbara Hudson (Don), Kathy Ford (Gene), Michael (Cheryl) and Lynn Lorimer (George); grandchildren, Daniel, Donnie, Melissa, Martha, Marcus, Emily, Caleigh, Rebecca and Kaitlyn; great-grandchildren, Bella, Krista, Kate, Addison, Ethan, Kadyn, Matthew, Kamden, Braxton and Zane.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date. Donations may be made in Joanne's honor to the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health or a charity of your choice.
