HAWKEN JOAN (BOSTWICK) Age 80, of Naples, Florida went peacefully into the loving arms of our Lord on Tuesday March 4, 2014 after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. Joan is the beloved Mother of Doug (Diana) Bostwick, Michael Bostwick, and Todd (Alyssa) Bostwick; cherished sister of Ann Sprowls and Frederick Cain; sweet Frammy Joan of Nicole Rivera, Todd, Colton and Austin Bostwick, and dear Friend of Esther Norris and many, more. Joan was welcomed into Heaven by her daughter Joellen Bostwick, loving Mother Lillian Cain, and the love of her life Bill Hawken. Joan was born and raised in Claysville, PA, raised her children in Pittsburgh, PA and spent the last 22 years enjoying her life to the fullest in Southwest Florida; enjoying gardening, social events, dancing, friends, and a good glass of wine. She was a selfless woman who cared deeply for others before herself, loved without limits, demonstrated strength and showed no fear. Services are private. The family requests that memorial contributions, in lieu of flowers, be made in Joan's memory to Pancreatic Cancer Action Network, 1500 Rosecrans Avenue Suite 200 Manhattan Beach, CA 90266 (1-877-272-6226) or Avow Hospice 1095 Whippoorwill Lane Naples, FL 34105 www.avowcares.org.
