Joan Hylton, 77, of New Plymouth passed away Monday, April 13, 1998 at an Ontario hospital.
Memorial services will be held at 11 a.m., Thursday, April 161 at the First Baptist Church, New Plymouth following private interment. Arrangements are under the direction of Shaffer-Jensen Memory Chapel, New Plymouth.
Joan was born Oct. 1, 1920 to Ed and Josie Hall Strohbehn at New Plymouth, Idaho. She was reared on her fathers farm and educated at Falk and Fruitland Elementary Schools. She was a faithful lifetime member of the First Baptist Church, baptized at the age of eight. She married Harold G. Hylton on Dec. 12, 1943 just prior to his entry into the U.S. Navy. During the war years, she lived with her parents, ultimately becoming her "Dad's hired man". After her husband's discharge from the service they built a "basement house" and farmed their own place, as well as helping her father. Following the death of her father, Joan and Harold moved into the family home to care for her mother; when the farm was sold they moved into town.
Joan had a caring nature, and at church or family gatherings usually had a small child at her side or in her arms, loving them all.
Survivors include her brother and his wife, Dr. Ben and Lorraine Strohbehn of Rochester, Minn.; a sister, Phyllis Coonrad of Riverside, Calif.; a sister and her husband, Marlys and Earl Johns of McCall, Idaho; three nephews; eight nieces; numerous cousins; also her faithful and loving caregiver, Sandra Haller; and loving friends, Neil and Bettie Olson. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband; an infant daughter; and a sister.
Memorials may be made to the First Baptist Church, 204 East Elm, New Plymouth, Idaho 83655. Friends may call from 3 to 7 p.m. today, Wednesday, April 15, at the Shaffer-Jensen Memory Chapel, New Plymouth.
