Widowed with two dependents, Joan returned to school for a diploma in public health nursing and spent several years as Nurse Riley at Woodroffe High School. After retiring, she met Stewart Clarke on holiday in Portugal and they married in 1985. For almost twenty years, they enjoyed travel, friends and family. Joan is survived by her husband Stewart, her daughter Susan Riley (Laura McNairn); her son Ted (Margaret Riley); and grandchildren D Arcy, Luke, Brannan, James and William.
