LANG, Joan Valerie. Our warrior woman; Mum / Nana Joan, you are finally free from the pain and for that we must be thankful - but death is so final. Hard working, talented, prankster extraordinaire Mum/Nana was a carer, a friend and she always put others before herself. Mum/ Nana loved her family, her friends and her community and she tried to do her best for everyone. The world has been richer for having you in it, Mum/ Nana. Rest peacefully now. We love you Mum/Nana Joan. Christine and Wayne, Josh (deceased), Karl and Gemma and Pepper.

LANG, Joan Valerie. Dearly loved Mum and Mother-in-law of John and Yvonne (Lang), much loved Nana Joan of Aaron and Matt and adoring Great-Nana Joan of Violet. From the cowshed to the kitchen and everywhere in between Mum, you were never slow to roll up your sleeves and give a hand. You can have a break now Mum. You've earned it. Rest in peace. We love you.

LANG, Joan Valerie. Dearly loved and respected Mum, Mother-in- law and Nana of Heather, Gavin, Thomas and Ciara and Zara. So many wonderful memories of card games, table talk and the fabulous feasts that came out of your kitchen. We will all continue to wear Nana's beanies with pride and appreciation. Thousands of beanies knitted over the years. Gone from our lives, but forever in our hearts.
