She attended Flint Technical High School but had been offered a scholarship to the famed Interlochen Center for the Arts. Joan also attended Flint Junior College. She married Terrance Boyer in 1960 after being wooed by his charm (Hey Polack, wanna dance?!). Together, they had eight children. Joan was a woman of strong faith and was always active in her church, including choir which she deeply loved. She had many talents. She was an avid writer of poetry and had a beautiful mezzo soprano voice. Joan could draw any likeness from a mere picture. She was a great cook. She cooked with love, and you could taste it! She was kind and generous of spirit, always putting others wants before her own needs. Joan will be dearly missed by all her children and grandchildren who were the lights of her life!
