Joan (Malone) McReynolds

Joan McReynolds, 85, July 6, 2022. Joan passed peacefully in her Parkwood home after a courageous battle with cancer. She was an original Parkwood homeowner and worked many years at the IRS and then as a teller at Philadelphia Park Racetrack.  She was a devout member of St. Anselm Church, and, through her very hard work, she managed to have all of her 7 children attend/graduate from St. Anselm and Archbishop Ryan. 

Joan was preceded in death by her loving husband of 50+ years, George Lawrence McReynolds.  She was the daughter of the late James and Florence (nee Dean) Malone, and sister of the late Mary Cleary (Joseph), Peggy O'Leary (Joseph), Cassie Houser (Delmer), James Malone (Judy), Helen Lare (John), Robert "Butchie" Malone, and Patricia Nugent (Danny).  She was survived by her sisters Ann Malone and Agnes Antonelli.

Joan was the devoted mother of Jean Lewis, the late Joan Schneiders, George McReynolds, Ron McReynolds (Ginny), Denise McReynolds, Donna Enstrom (Colin) and the late Robert McReynolds; adoring grandmother of Juliette Dobson (Matt), Stephen Lewis (Jayme), Laura King (Andrew), Crystal Avallon (Patrick), Jonathan Lewis (Chelsea), Thomas Schneiders (Jacqueline), Kaitlyn Gaimari, Lauren Sammartino (Michael), Jeff McReynolds and Sean McReynolds.  Joan was the great-grandmother ("GG") of Natalie, Elizabeth ("Busy"), Rileigh, Grace and Vivienne, Margot, Wesley and Lily Joan.  She was the loving honorary grandmother to Erin and Frankie Triebl ("Neecee's" Kids) and loving aunt to countless nieces and nephews.
