Joan H. Owen Ives, 86, of Wantage New Jersey, passed away Friday evening (12-13-2019) at Chilton Memorial Medical Center, Pompton Plains, New Jersey. She is the widow of the late Willard R. Ives.

Born in Glen Cove, Long Island, NY, the daughter of the late George Daniel and Ruth Emmaline Hickok Owen, Joan was a graduate of Bayonne High School, Bayonne, NJ.

She was always reading and was passionate about genealogy and animals, especially deer and cardinals. Joan enjoyed traveling with her family on vacations, to her grandson’s hockey games and genealogy research trips with her daughter and son-in-law. She will be sorely missed in their lives.

Surviving are a daughter Janet Price and husband John, Wantage, NJ; a son Willard G. Ives, and wife Tracy, Pittsgrove, NJ; a grandson Kurt M. Ives; a granddaughter Sophie Troiani.

She was preceded in death by a brother George Walter Owen.
