Notes for Dorothy Joan BODDINGTON City of Parksville flags were at half-mast to honour the passing of Parksville resident and friend, Joan Lemoine. Joan loved Parksville and cared greatly for the people of Parksville. She was a positive force in the world, the consummate volunteer, generous with her time and endless energy. It was just this past June (2020) that we honoured Joan with the key to the City and celebrated “Joan Lemoine Day in the City of Parksville.” (picture) “With saddened heart we learn of Joan’s passing. No one personified community spirit like Joan. She touched so many and will be missed, but her memory will live in our hearts forever. Thank you, Joan, for being my friend,” said Mayor Ed Mayne.Joan passed away in Nanaimo Regional General Hospital with her best friend and niece by her side. Our sincere condolences to Joan’s family and her many friends. [339]
