Joan A. (Hoak) Ryan Obituary
We are sad to announce that, on October 26, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Joan A. (Hoak) Ryan (East Amherst, New York). Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Joan A. (Hoak) Ryan to show support.
Though Joan may no longer walk beside us, her memory will forever be enshrined in the fabric of the lives of those Joan touched, a beacon of light guiding us through the darkness. In her absence, her spirit lives on — a gentle whisper in the breeze, a ray of sunlight on a cloudy day, a reminder that love knows no boundaries.
She was loved and cherished by many people including: her children, Debra Parkot (late Brian), Maureen Weir (Mark), James Ryan and Carol Lucey (Timothy); and her cousin Karen Cummings (Ray). She was also cherished by 2 sisters and 1 brother and survived by nieces and nephews.
The family has requested the courtesy of no flowers. Expressions of sympathy may be directed to the American Arthritis Foundation, arthritis.org or St. Jude's Hospital at st.jude-give.org.
