Our Mom…Joan Demeny, recently passed away peacefully of natural causes.
She was born in Marquette, MI & lived in Iron Mountain, MI & Green Bay, WI. She is survived by her 4 children & her 2 grandchildren.
She attended Northern Michigan University where she earned her LPN degree. The majority of her nursing career was at St Mary’s Hospital in Green Bay. She loved being a nurse & her co-workers & patients testify they loved her too!
She had a fun, inquisitive nature, loved to travel & being on the go experiencing life! She was happiest when her family was around her visiting or playing cribbage or Michigan Rummy.
