Joan Margo "Joni" Gustavson Childs 1943 - 2021 Early Life: Joan was born September 6, 1941, to Oscar R. and Emily Inger Norman Gustavson at Dr. George Anderson's hospital near Hobble Creek in Springville, Utah. Joan had a happy childhood with sisters, Cora and Joyce, and her brother, Norman. Life's Work | Service | Interests: Joan married the luckiest guy ever, Dale Ray Childs, on January 26, 1964. She promised to love and honor Dale but there wasn't any obeying, that was Dale's job. They built a wonderful life in Provo, Utah, for their children: Kelly, Carey, and Sean. Throughout their married life, Joan worked in retail, banking, and owned her own business. Upon Dale's retirement, travel became an exciting part of their life together. The Oregon Coast was one of their favorite places on earth. Dale and Joan spent winters in Arizona and made many great friends and acquaintances over the years. Joni loved and cared for many Boston Terriers. Izzy will miss her most. Joan Margo "Joni" Gustavson Childs, 79, passed away July 24, 2021. Family Message: Heaven had a better sale. In true Joni form, she went in search of the best deal. Shopper extraordinaire, Joan Margo Gustavson Childs left us for better prices and shorter lines, although the return policy was lacking. We believe Joan's parents are responsible for Joan's shopping addiction as it was customary for them to take her to Salt Lake City shopping on the weekends as a child. Survived By: Her husband of 57 years, Dale; children: Kelly, Carey, and Sean (Jennifer), of Provo; ten grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and brother, Norman. Preceded In Death By: Her daughter, Charmaine; her parents, sisters, a son-in-law, and a daughter-in-law.
