Joan Hagadone, age 80, passed away peacefully at Rosebud Health Care Center in Forsyth, Montana on March 4, 2018. Joan was born April 24, 1937 to Nicholas and Pearl Norgaard in Park Grove/Fort Peck, Montana. The family moved to Poplar, Montana while Joan was very young and that is where she attended both elementary and high school.
Joan met Jerry Hagadone while living in Poplar and they married on November 22, 1954. Joan worked at Boulds Drug, Fort Peck Mercantile and the Poplar Museum. She loved to fish and camp with her family and her many dear friends. Joan was blessed with the ability to bead beautiful things, which she sold and gifted to many over the years. She loved watching her kids and grandkids participate in all their sporting endeavors and loved listening on the radio when she was unable to attend an event.
Joan and Jerry moved to Forsyth, Montana in 2012 so they could be closer to family and it didn’t take long for them to be adopted and instantly loved in the Forsyth Community. Joan loved to go for a drive and see what was going on around town, so it was common to see them making their loop around town daily.
Joan is preceded in death by her parents, Nicholas and Pearl Norgaard; brother, Milton Norgaard, and sister, Vera Goodwin.
Joan is survived by her husband of 63 years, Jerry Hagadone; sister, Verna Kennedy of Aurora, Colorado; daughter Vickie (Richard) Anderson; grandson, Reggie (Monica) Anderson; great grandson, Riley; granddaughter, Chrissy (Aaron) Rossow; great grandson, Hank; great granddaughter, Julia; son, Nick Hagadone and fiancé Laura Ryan; granddaughter, Rachelle (Frank) Park; great granddaughter, Maci Moon; granddaughter, Shawna Hagadone; great granddaughter, Payton; granddaughter, Amber (Ross) Odegard; great granddaughter, Emma; great grandson, Aksel; son, Rusty (Kileen) Hagadone; grandson, Dalton; granddaughter, Samantha; daughter in law, June Hagadone and adopted family, Rita Nygaard and her children Samantha, Michelle and Lloyd.

Dear Jerry and Family,
I’m so sorry for your loss. I have such fond memories of working with Joan at the Merc during my college summers. We had a great time together chatting around the table on break. And of course all the neighborhood memories when she’d be at Pearl’s.
Prayers for peace,

Cissy Eagleman, Poplar MT says
Oh Joan, you beautiful lady you. I KNOW & BELIEVE…GOD needed another AWESOME ANGEL. God BLESSED us ALL with your life, your friendship, joy, love and loving hugs. YOU blessed me with your friendship. I remember in 2000, my home was broken into. I was devastated..I saw you in Wolf Point at the floral shop. We talked and hugged then you left. As I went to pay for the flowers the lady said your Mom said to go and pick a rose. I cried, I love you and have missed you and Jerry since you two wonderful people left Poplar.
You are now in the arms of our Heavenly Father.
I thank God you were a part of my life…
Jerry, my prayers of comfort will be prayed for you always. Joan will always be in your heart, she will ALWAYS be a part of you for you carry her in your heart.
