In Memory of
Emilie "Joan" Kathleen Osborne
-

Emilie “Joan” Kathleen Osborne, of Houston, Texas, went to meet her Savior on April 21, 2023, at age 88. Joan was born October 20, 1934, in Missoula, Montana. 

At eight years old, she traveled from Missoula to Houston, where her father found a job with M&M working with valves and heavy machinery.   

Joan raised four children by herself. Her priorities were God, her children, and the home she provided for them. She worked at Shell as an editor and as a layout artist for the Houston Post for 25 years. Later she was able to travel to Greece.

Joan was a real down-to-earth lady who valued her relationship with Jesus the Lord, Who worked miracles in her life. She had many longtime friendships. Joan was a giver, always ready to offer a snack and a conversation, tender-hearted, and tough as nails when times were rough. She remembered special occasions, and often gave special gifts, not for the sake of gaining favor, but as a token of genuine love. In addition, she was a walking encyclopedia of family history, special memories, and humorous anecdotes.

Joan is preceded in death by parents Virgil Willis and Sadie Marie Osborne, and by her sisters Dorothy Nonmacher and Donna Johnson, and her brother Virgil Willis Osborne Jr. Joan is survived by her three sons George, Daniel, and Sean Dupre, and her daughter Kathy Temple, as well as numerous grandchildren, nephews, and nieces, all of whom she loved very much. She will be dearly missed.

A memorial service for Joan Osborne will be at Our Savior Lutheran Church on Monday, May 1, 2023, beginning at 11:00 AM, with a bereavement meal following at 12:00 PM.

Graveside service will be held at Forest Park Lawndale Cemetery at 2:00 PM, located at 6900 Lawndale St, Houston, Texas 77023.

Pall bearers: Michael Sean Dupre, Joshua Michael Sean Dupre, Daniel Ray Virgil Dupre, Virgil Willis Osborne, III, Edwin Jack Nonmacher, III, and Patrick Thomas Osborne
