Joanne Point

 November 17, 1946 – December 15, 2020

It is with deep sadness that Musqueam announces the passing of Joanne Point. Due to Covid-19 safety protocols and restrictions, only those contacted will be invited to attend in-person. Please know that this is a very difficult and unusual process for the family.

With the greatest of love and respect,
the Campbell & Point family

  • Right on Thellaiwhaltun
  • Quick Left onto Crown Street
  • Left on Stautlo Avenue
  • Left back onto Salish Drive
  • Right onto Musqueam Drive to the cemetery for a burial

 

Handshakes to the family of Joanne Point

Send e-transfers to [email protected] to give the family a handshake.

Handshakes and returns are also accepted during the procession. The ushers will follow behind the procession to collect envelopes along the route.

Please include in e-transfer or on envelope: name, where money will go (e.g. headstone, family etc.)

 

Saying goodbye during Covid-19

Due to Covid-19 guidelines, community will remain at designated areas and say your farewell from the curbside. We ask that everyone practice physical distancing and ensure the safety of the family in mourning. We understand how difficult this is for community, but we must remain diligent.

MIB Council and Admin acknowledge that this is not ideal, nor is it consistent with the traditional ways we come together to remember loved ones. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the ways we gather. We are doing our best to ensure members can still uphold cultural practices while maintaining everyone’s safety.
