PETTIGREWJOAN D. (GREER)Age 85, of Ingram, PA, beloved wife of the late Robert H. Pettigrew, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, January 11, 2017, the day that would have been her beloved Bob's 90th birthday.

She was loved by an abundance of nieces, nephews and friends. One of those friends, Lois (Mayer) Kijowski, was fond of saying, she always considered Joan to be her "second Mom". Joan lived with her family in Ingram for over 60 years. Since the time she was a little girl, she often visited family and was fond of saying that "my suitcase is always packed!" Besides the "magic house" in Ingram, she and Bob had a small cottage at Conneaut Lake where they spent many happy years hosting family and friends. Joan's smile lit up the room and her heart would warm up anyone who knew her. She had a unique way of making everybody feel special and to know they were loved. She will be deeply missed.
