    • Joan Fawcett Lassle

      Mar. 3, 1942-Nov. 23, 2016

      Joan Fawcett Lassle 74, went to her heavenly home on Wednesday November 23, 2016 at the Hospice of the Hills in Rapid City, S.D. Her firm belief in God supported her in her struggles and ultimately gave her peace. Her fear of flying is gone - she soars!

      Joan Grace Fawcett was born March 3, 1942 in Newcastle to Alice (Statler) and Crawford Fawcett. She attended Newcastle schools and graduated from Newcastle High School in 1962.

      She married James Souder on September 27, 1965 in Deadwood S.D. She later married Helmuth Lassle.

      She was a member of the Country Church.

      Joan worked as a waitress, short order cook, at the saw mill, and in the kitchen at the hospital, but her favorite job was working at Pahaska Tepee outside the east gate of Yellowstone Park.

      She loved the great outdoors, fishing, multiple crafts, including making jewelry, gardening, cooking and spending a lot of time with her children.

      She was devoted to and loved being part of a large and extended family. She enjoyed the family reunions and did so much to make them fun. She loved to shop (Wal-Mart) where she could find bargains to put in the door prize bags (100+) that she did for every person attending.

      Joan loved all animals and they loved her.

      She is survived by: her son, Dwight Souder of Newcastle; her daughter Barbie (Dave) Steber of Newcastle; siblings, Lois Hurley of Ponce de Leon, Fla.; Lewis (Mary Jo) Fawcett of Basin, Wyo.; her twin sister Jean Day of Newcastle; Robert (Karen Jo) Fawcett of Newcastle; Jerry (Karol) Fawcett of Newcastle; Dorothy (Ron) Pitts of Newell, S.D.; sister-in-law, Carol Fawcett of Casper, Wyo.; brother-in-law, Doyle Hailey, of Billings, Mont.; aunt, Grace Davis of Newcastle, uncle, Dale Statler, of Centralia, Wash.; numerous nieces, nephews, great nieces, great nephews, cousins, and Molly, her faithful companion.

      She was preceded in death by: her Mother, Alice Fawcett and Father Crawford Fawcett; her brother Thomas Fawcett and her sisters, Doris Hailey and Judy Hampton; brother-in-law, Oliver Hurley; nephews, Lee Fawcett, Brian Fawcett, & Travis Pitts and great niece, Samantha Vogel.

      In lieu of flowers a memorial has been established to the Weston County Senior Center.

      An online guestbook can be found at www.blackhillsfuneralhome.com

      Services will be held at the Weston County Senior Center at 2 p.m. on Saturday December 3.
