Grandma Joan ~ We'll miss you. Thanks for being such a great Mom!!!


Our loving wife, mother, grandmother & friend passed away Feb. 16th 2009.
Mom was born Jan. 6th, 1938 in Woodbine, KS to Leona &
Ralph Oesterreich. She is survived by her husband of 53 yrs Thomas L McCarty,
sons: Bobby (Cindy), Tommy (Pam), DeWayne, and Shawn (Michelle),
7 Grandchildren, 6 Great Grandchildren & her brother Jack Loy.
She was proceeded in death by her son, Timothy, brother Gene, and parents.
We couldn't have asked for a better mom,
even though raising 4 boys was quite a challenge.
A skunk under a bucket, snakes in the milk box, a burnt down
horsebarn, smoke bombs in the kitchen, and a pigeon in the dryer were all
a normal day in the life of our mom. She was a stay at home mom, an
excellent cook and always there for us.
A celebration of her life will be held at Tate Mortuary 110 S. Main St in Tooele, UT
Fri. Feb. 20th at 11:00 am. A viewing will be held one hour prior to services.
We'll miss you mom. I love you. I love you more.

LOVE THOSE BOYS!


I love this picture Chels took of the boys this week. It is so priceless. They all came over yesterday and we had a great day. Gavin is so observant and I had some potpourri in a pottery bowl. He asked "Where you buy that?". I told him "Pier One Imports", he said, "No, probably P.S. Store". (He calls the NPS Store, P.S.)
