Joan Gleason (nee Feltes) passed peacefully to eternal life on Sunday, June 18, 2023 at the age of 90 years.
Loving wife of the late Lowell. Dear mother of Brad (Deb), Bob (Pam), and Jeff (Leann). Proud grandmother of Kyle (Kelsey), Robert (Kim), Alicia (Galen) Burke, Todd (Katie), Lindsay, and Claire. Cherished great grandma of Parker, Crosby, Maximillian, Cora, Emerson, Siena, Felix Burke, Remi Burke, and Louis Burke.

Joan was preceded in death by her mother, Louise; father, Adam; 8 brothers and sisters as well as nieces and nephews.
Joan was a retired employee of St. Luke’s Hospital and member of St. James Catholic Church in Franklin for over 60 years. She cherished time with family and loved to cook and bake, insisting that any visitor have something to eat.
Special thanks to her wonderful nieces, Dawn and Sister Jenny, the staff at Preceptor Hospice and Robin’s Landing Assisted Living for their loving care and comfort during Joan’s final weeks.

    Our hearts go out to the ENTIRE FAMILY and we hope that the support of loving friends will help during this difficult time. I was lucky enough to know this remarkable woman….really a second Mom if you want to know the truth. Mrs. G was always there with a kind word & a smile…..a real beautiful human being. She will be missed by many, but will never be forgotten. ❤️🙏

    I wouldn’t be the woman I am today, without knowing this lovely lady and mother. We were blessed to live in a neighborhood, where your neighbors were like family and treated you that way. I will love her always and miss her forever.

    I would like to extend my sincere sympathies to the family of Joan Gleason, a family I am so blessed to be part of. When the Lord called our beloved Joan home, heaven truly gained a special angel.

    Like a beacon light, Joan’s goodness and unwavering love shined bright, steadfast, and ever true for all to see. The hearts she touched along the way, too numerous to count, will always remember her integrity, and her kind and giving soul.

    To my sister-in-law, Joan, whom I admired greatly, my family and I will always think of you as an example of how we should strive to life. Joan, we will miss you dearly!

    Love, Melba Gleason
