Obituary for Joan Oliver
Joan was born in Chicago, IL. on Mar. 18, 1929, and passed away in Arlington, TX. on July 4, 2021, surrounded by family. She met the love of her life, Paul W. Oliver, in high school. They were married (September 2, 1949) for 58 years until his passing on Nov. 11, 2007.
Joan never met a stranger. Her door was always open, with coffee, monkey tea, and sweets for her guests. She was famous for her letter and card writing. She loved teaching her girl's old songs, when they were little. They returned the favor by singing the songs to her on the day of her passing.

Families: Tom Oliver (Dallas); Dana Zamora (Aurora, IL); and Bob Blankenship (Dexter, Mo.). Close family and friends.
Loving caregivers: Ann, Carolyn, Don & Martha, Laurie, Mary Mac, and Kelly.
Per Joan's request no service will be held. Arrangements: Restland Funeral Home in Dallas.
Donations in Joan's name should be made to University Christain Church, 2720 S. University, Ft. Worth, 76109, or to a charity of your choice.
Please think of Joan whenever you read Psalm 23, or hear the songs "In The Garden" and "On Eagles Wings".Obituary provided by Restland Funeral Home - Dallas, Texas
