She went by the name “Joan” and she shared her birthday with her sister, Margaret. They were 15 years apart on the 15th day of October; 15 years older or younger. With that being said, they are in Heaven celebrating their birthdays together, out of pain and running and having lots of great fun.

She graduated from South Cache High School and from seminary in 1951. She married Hazen E. Nielson in Logan, Utah. Together they had 7 children.
Joan is survived by her children, Kenneth Nielson, John & Jennifer Nielson , Lorie Romney, Doug Nielson, Niel and Cathy Nielson; her eight grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren, along with many nieces and nephews and great-nieces and great-nephews.
