Aged 89 years, Joan passed away peacefully on Saturday, 20 April, 2024, at Lakeside Care Home. Joan joins her husband Otto who passed, aged 91 years, on the 19 April, 2020.

Joan and Otto were well known in Jersey, back in the day, for running El Tico from 1977 to 1990. Joan was famous for her cakes, pies and quiches. Otto then went on to work at airport security.

They were both big animal lovers and had wonderful lives.

At Joan’s request she has had a private cremation because she didn’t think it was fair to have anything more than Otto, who passed during the first Covid lockdown.

Both Joan and Otto are greatly missed by all their family and their many friends.

Always loved, always with us in our hearts.
