Joan Grant Phoenix
Joan Phoenix, of the Barona reservation, Lakeside, CA, passed away at her home yesterday, July 12th. A full-blooded member of the Otoe-Missouria tribe of Red Rock, OKLA, she was a great role model for all women. Please join me in mourning her loss and extending condolences to her family. Aunt Joan was very instrumental in the education component for the Barona Tribe, where she worked tirelessly to help the tribal children. She was a great wife, mom, grandmother, and aunt to all who knew her. She fed and welcomed many in her home over the years. Rest well, Auntie.
