Joan was a member of the Junior League, the Toledo Yacht Club Auxiliary, and many philanthropic organizations. She is survived by her loving husband of more than 54 years, Vin Devers; sons, Paul (Elise) of Ottawa Hills, OH and their daughters, Brooke, Brandi, and Paige, and Thomas (Barbara) Devers of Sylvania, OH and their children, Ryan, Shane, Haley, and Ceara. Her brothers Paul Dempsey of Mt. Prospect, IL and Jerry Dempsey of New York City, NY preceded Joan in death. Friends may call at the Reeb Funeral Home, 5712 N. Main St. Street, Sylvania, OH Thursday, December 28th from 4 - 9 p.m. where Scripture Services will begin at 7:30 p.m. The Funeral Mass will be conducted at the St. Joseph Catholic Church, Sylvania, Friday at 10 a.m. Entombment will follow at Toledo Memorial Park.

How ironic, Joan battled Multiple Sclerosis for more than 50 years, but lost her life to brain cancer in less than 2 months. Her upbeat and positive attitude was an inspiration to everyone she met.
