I consider Auntie Joanie .....family ,any member of the Cameron family is a member of the Poyser family ,that is how we lived on Church Street.
It was with great sadness that I learned of her passing from Aunt Ruby.
I remember Aunt Joanie as a very poised ladylike, kind and pleasant personality one in whose presence you could not help but feel the warmth and love that she exuded. That love was not confined to immediate family members whom she fiercely defended and protected if necessary but to all with whom she came in contact , I experienced that love !!
My sincere condolences to her immediate family members and Friends,  cherish the fond memories and may God's light perpetually shine on her ,Rest in Peace aunt Joanie.

Aunt Joan was a true treasure, with such an infectious spirit! I remember meeting her at a resort and that experience stuck with me. I loved her immeditately. Have you ever met someone and in just a few days, it's like you've known them your whole life? That's how I felt. We ate, walked about, hung out by the pool and had the best conversations and jokes. By far, she was one of the best Grandaunts anyone could ever ask for. Embracing you all my family, we will get through this together. God bless you all.

This came as a shock but I am thankful for the wonderful discussion we shared approximately four years ago around family and the pre American election. I learnt much about her that evening and her active mind even though retired then, thought we solved America’ issues that day. A wonderful mind. In Heavenly Love abiding. God grant her rest eternal and light her way.

Thanks for sharing that photo memory. Blessings

Our families have been intertwined in many ways. I always saw you as the consummate fashionista, well poised and polished, Miss Prim and Proper if you will 😊. We never conversed much but you always carried that radiant, winsome smile.
Rest in Peace Aunt Joan, may light perpetually shine on you.

I will always miss my great aunty. I was really close to her and  she was a very special woman. She was one of the gaffers of the family because when she came over to stay in the UK with my grandad she would make sure that everybody was okay and that everything was alright.
RIP Gaffer!! ❤️

Aunt Joan, your work on earth is done. Heavens final journey has begun. I will miss your chuckle when I call and say "aunty its your pretty niece". "Pretty indeed", you always said. Thank you for the love you gave. Thank you for the examples set. The angels in heaven now have a new addition to the choirs. Rest dearest aunty, in the arms of God until we meet again.

Lady JK Cameron, my aunt went on to glory taking her last breath on December 14, 2020.

Tribute To My Sweet Auntie. She was one of our favorite and we ALL loved her. This was the aunt who loved like a mother, though she never had children of her own.

Your passing has left me in a stupor but I promise myself that your home-going service and memorial will be a true reflection of the person you were.

Your death is a huge loss to us, but we will hold on to all the memories we created together. Adieu Aunt!

# data[].attributes.body
I will forever cherish the memories we have together. You taught me many of my firsts and took the place of my mother when you didn’t have to. I’m so thankful how the past couple of years we were able to bond more, and you taught me many things that I apply to my life daily. You have impacted so many people and you were always so caring. From the closest blood relative to a complete stranger, you always tried to help in some way. I know you have fulfilled your purpose here on this earth and your legacy will continue to live on. And I just know you are having a ball in heaven, singing with the angels, with friends and family that have passed, and watching over your loved ones as we continue life. I am so grateful to be called your niece and I hope to see you again one day.
Love forever your niece, KayKay

Aunt Joan, you walked with such poise, your smile infectious, what can I say that haven't been said already, only that I love you, thanks for all that you've done for each and everyone. R.I.H now, know that you've left a hole in our hearts that is filled with nothing but beautiful memories......sleep now😭💔

Whenever one of us leaves a void is left. Aunt Joan your time with us here in this world has ended but your memories live on. SIP.

Her eyes used to be full of mischief and her smile was sparkling and infectious. She will be missed by all who were fortunate enough to know her.

On a lighter note, there is no doubt that she is regaling those Above with stories about her loved ones here. I do hope you were all on your best behaviour!

Classy, elegant, graceful and fashionable are some of the words I could use to describe Aunt Joan.  I was always amazed by this well spoken and stylish woman. Aunt Joan was "stush" in other words prim and proper. Her laughter held an air of sophistication and it was no different when she cried.

Aunt Joan, walk good. God saw your pain and knew your tears. Heaven has gained another star. May your soul rest in peace.

My husband and I attended Wesley Chapel during two short stays we did in Toronto.  Joan was very welcoming to us.  She had us for lunch at her place once.  She served cake for dessert that she had bought somewhere.  It was so delicious.  After I told her that she sent most of what was left with us to take back to our apartment.  Even though we live in Kentucky, I will miss her and offer my sympathies to the family.

I always felt a part of Granny Lou's family, so Aunt Joan was family. Looking through my child's eyes, I will always remember her as a woman whose presence filled the room with charm and sophistication. She was also a woman who stood for discipline and always had a word of encouragement for us.

Rest well Aunt Joan.

It’s been a long time since I have seen Joan, but I remember her as if it were yesterday. We were neighbors, but what I remember about her is that she was like. What you would call today, a fashion designer. She was tall and oh so elegant. I will forever keep these memories in my heart. Joan, thoughts of you transcends time.  Rest eternally in peace in the arms of the Lord.

From the first day we visited Wesley Chapel, which is now our church home, Joan welcomed myself, husband and four sons. She took our sons under her guidance introducing them to other young people and placing them in positions of responsibility making them feel needed. We thought we were really very, very special to be singled out but then we realised that welcoming strangers, serving others and just loving people 💕 was and is her mission and what she does. Joan you have been a light, a guide and a mentor for many especially the young people of WC. You can never be replaced and will be missed. We however, take great solace in the fact that you have fought your fight, ran your race and have now claimed your crown! Sleep in peace my sister! ❤👏🏿🌹

Joan was the very first person I met at Wesley Chapel 12 years ago. She was so welcoming and made us feel like we belonged right from the very first Sunday. She may also have been the first person from WC to invite us to her home. She knew the importance of making connections with people and including them in the church family. Her physical presence has been missed for some time already but her legacy at WC lives on. - Samantha

Aunt Joan was an Angel and we are blessed to have had her in our lives. I remember the excitement when the barrels she used to send home arrived, there was always something special for everyone. Her quick wit and laughter was a joy to be around and will be missed. Thank you Aunt Joan for your gracious hospitality in Canada and for your fun visit with us in Orlando. Sleep Well in the arms of our father and we know you are smiling down at us in your lady- like manner reminding us to be good stewards.

Aunty Joan,

I'm so grateful for the impact and influence you had in my life. I enjoyed all the moments we shared together, and I'm grateful that you were part of every milestone in my life, both good and bad. Thank you for all that you brought to my life. It was so easy to talk to you, and you always provided such sound advice when we talked. Most importantly, I always felt a sense of pride and joy when you looked in my eyes and that meant so much. I loved you dearly and miss you greatly, especially your wonderful laugh, smile and sense of humor. Thank you for your love and friendship. I will always hold you close to my heart.

Love always,

Dearest Joan,
I will miss your laughter, kindness and our little “chats”, which were often thought-provoking. You inspired many by thought,word and deed. May you Rest In Peace.

My very sweet Auntie Joan,

The kindest person I have ever known.

All the things you have taught me,

Compassion, faith and eternal glee.

Since I was a child you have been with me,

A strong and incredible role model is she.

Guiding, inspiring and always encouraging me,

Instilling wisdom, faith, and grace I decree.

I honestly felt and thought you would live forever,

Sharing special moments like graduations and weddings together.

But I know your presence with me is everlasting,

Your love and prayers for me pleasantly basking.

Forever you have been and will always be,

A rock, a light, an angel, I guarantee.

Your beautiful soul always over watching,

Your eternal presence all so calming.
~Love, Aba Baah

Joan Katrina. Beloved sister,friend, counsellor, family advisor and supporter, strong dignified woman of character, virtious and faithful servant of Jesus Christ and the list goes on. Words are inadequate to express how deeply sadden I am at your passing.  It is very hard to lose a loved one to the grave. My heart painfully aches but I am encouraged by the holy words "Weeping  may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning". I mourn, not as those who have no hope because I am confident that you are gone to a better place. J.K your unconditional love and devotion to family and friends is unforgettable. You kindness was huge. You gave willing to others. Joan, you were beatiful inside and out. The fragrance of your beautiful life will forever linger in the hearts of those whom you have influenced throughout your earthly sojourn. A bit bossy at times, but who isn't ? You did not bear malice nor grudge. Another link from the family chain is missing, but as God calls us 1 by 1 the chain wil refortify. Sis, if love could have saved you, you would still be here with us today. Christians never die they only say good bye. I am bless and honoured to have had you as my sister and mentor. Until we meet again before His throne, cloth in the spotless robe He gives His own, until we know even as we are known, Good night!!! Enjoy your long deserve rest. We love you well but Jesus loves you best. Rest in peace dear sister. You're greatly missed. Gone but will never be FORGOTTEN.

Little Sister Ruby.

As a member of the Wesley Chapel family I came to know and admire Joan for her welcoming and encouraging personality. She reached out to everyone she came into contact with and made them feel like family with grace and the most wonderful intentions. This is a gift that she possessed and shared so freely and always with a servants heart. Will miss seeing your smile as I enter the doors of WC, will miss seeing you hustling about within the church walls and take your place in the choir. May you rest in power Joan as you enter the doors of heaven and take your place in the loving arms of our Heavenly Father.

What can be said of Aunt Joan that hasn't already been said? Her quick wit and effortless grace was something to behold. That’s probably why many of us “young ones” looked at her with so much respect and admiration. This family is truly at a loss with her passing, but she has no doubt touched so many people that her presence can never be forgotten. Sleep well Aunt Joan and know that you’ll always be remembered💕

I will never forget aunty Joan’s beautiful smile which is shared by granny Lou and all aunt Joan’s siblings. Her quiet, soft spoken voice and that big hug when she would come home from Canada when I was a little girl. May the angels welcome you in heaven❤️🙏

Dear Aunt Joan.  Thank you for everything you have done to help us over the years as we settled in Canada. You created possibilities for us and we appreciate you and all that you have done.  The last time I saw you in the hospital and spent time with you I remember leaving and thinking how good the visit was. It was always good to talk with you. You are now with our Lord. You are missed but we will see you again. We love you.

Through all the changing scenes of life.

In trouble and in joy.

The praises of my God shall still my heart and tongue employ.

(The Methodist Hymn Book, Hymn 427)

It is such a blessing for my family to have had Aunt Joan in our lives.

It was some 18 years ago in the Fall of 2002, when my parents moved to Toronto from Fredericton, New Brunswick.

My parents did not know anybody in the city.

They met Aunt Joan on the very first Sunday that they attended church at Wesley Chapel here is Scarborough.

According to my parents, after church on that very Sunday, Aunt Joan reached out to introduce herself, and exchanged phone numbers with them. That’s how their friendship with Aunt Joan started.  Over the years, the relationship evolved beyond friendship and became family.

Growing up Aunt Joan was there as grandmother for my sister and I. She was there for our birthdays, school graduation, sleepovers at her house, summer trips, and most importantly all those special “girl talks” that grandmothers would typically have with their grand daughters as you grow through teenage years.

My Dad and Mom, from the bottom of their hearts owe you a huge debt of gratitude for your kindness and being their support system over the years.

There were countless number of times that you were there for them. They would like to mention these two special occasions and thank you:

The first being, the very next day after the birth of my sister at Scarborough General Hospital. You visited my mom at the hospital to take care of her and her new born, so my Dad could take care of me at home. I was only 3 years old.

And the second occasion was some fourteen years ago when my mom had surgery at North York General Hospital. You came to the hospital each day and took care of my Mom so my Dad could take care of my sister and I at home. I was only 6 and my sister was 2.

My parents would like to thank you for your motherly love. My sister and I would like to thank you for your kindness, love, advice, selflessness and instilling the importance of Christian faith in us.

Auntie Joan, May the Almighty God bless your soul and keep you until we meet again in God’s Glory.

~The Baah Family
