She especially cherished the time she spent with her grandparents and held dear the memories made on the Powell family farm, a place that remained close to her heart. She was a great storyteller and had an excellent sense of humor.Her greatest happiness came from spending time with her grandchildren. She also enjoyed antiquing and had a deep appreciation for history, often finding joy in the stories and connections that came with it.

Those left to cherish her memory include her children, Brian (Jamie) Heymann of Edgington and Lisa (Mike) Ryckaert of Taylor Ridge; and her grandchildren, Alexis, Sydney, Gracie, Ethan, Aiden, Bailee, Taylor, Kylie and Quin. She is also remembered by her siblings, Louis Powell, Margaret Oakland, and Debbie Bowen; and many nieces and nephews.

Joette will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her, and her memory will live on in the family she cherished so dearly.
