December 6, 1934 ~ May 8, 2011


Resided in: Canton, GA

Joan Marie Corrigan D’Ornellas passed away Mother’s Day May 8th following a courageous battle against leukemia. While many would consider this an especially difficult day to lose a mother, it was her life as a mother that will always be her legacy. She was born December 6, 1934 in Queens New York. She is survived by four children and six grandchildren; son Michael and daughter in law Martha D’Ornellas of Canton GA and their children Autumn and Zachary, son Robert and daughter in law Lisa D’Ornellas of Roswell GA and their children Joshua and Rachael, son Scott and daughter in law Cindi D’Ornellas of Canton GA and their children Reilly and Carly and daughter Joanie D’Ornellas Michael of Raleigh NC. In her final days, she was surrounded by those that loved her. Her family takes comfort in the knowledge that she is with her beloved son Kevin Patrick D’Ornellas who preceded her in death as an infant. She was a woman with a strong Catholic faith and will be remembered as a loving, caring, compassionate mother, grandmother and friend. There will be a memorial service for the family in her honor.
