Born in Wilkes-Barre, PA on March 1, 1932 to the late Frank and Inez Kelly Gallagher, Joan will be lovingly remembered by her nephews and niece, Bernard Brennan, Jr. and his wife Cynthia, Timothy Brennan, and Mary Brennan; great-nieces and nephews, Kellan, Shane, Bowen, Allie, and Jay Brennan. She was predeceased by her siblings, Frank Gallagher and Inez Brennan.
Family and friends will be invited to a Mass celebrating Joan in the near future. Her private entombment in All Saints Cemetery was under the care of BEECHER & BENNETT FUNERAL HOME, 2300 Whitney Ave., Hamden.
Dear Bernie and family – Joan will truly be missed. She loved it here at Oakbrook and transitioned well into Elim Park where initially she was so busy you could not get on her calendar. She was a wonderful woman; smart, fun, and easy to be around.
We feel so blessed to have had her in our lives. May she rest in peace.
Sincerely, Mark and Roberta DiNicola
Aloha family of Joan. I was so sorry to hear of her passing just now. I’ve tried to keep in touch, but from this distance, it’s not always so easy. Know that my heart is sad with you and for you all. She was a very special lady/friend and befriended my whole family. God bless you all as you remember her very special gifts of love to you.
The Brennan Family;
I was going thru the daily obits and for some reason I clicked on this. Didn’t know why, because all I’ve ever known her by was Aunt Joan on her many summer visits growing up on Barraclough.
Life is strange, especially when deaths involved.
She as well as all of you will be remembered in my prayers.
Rest in Peace Aunt Joan!
