Some of my favorite memories with Grandma O happened during the holiday seasons. As a little girl, my family and I would always go see the Christmas lights in Hampton and stop by Grandma‘s house on Christmas Eve. We would exchange treats, laughs, gifts, and enjoy our time together. Grandma always reminded us of the importance of giving, and making time for others. The spirit of Christmas was always in her home and what a great example that was to me. 

As I have grown older and started a family of my own, Grandma O always made time to send congratulatory, birthday, anniversary, and seasonal cards to let me know she was thinking about me and my family. She was always thinking of others and accepted and treated me as her own grandchild, even though biologically  we were not related. I am grateful for the memories her and I have shared over the years, and her great example of kindness and love. She will be missed dearly.

                                          Now for a little love and fun.

Legacy of Love,
A wife, a mother and a grandma too
This is the legacy we have from you
You taught us love and how to fight
You gave us strength and gave us might
A stronger person would be hard to find
And in your heart you were always kind
You fought for us all in one way or another
For all of us you gave your best
Now the time has come for you to rest
So go in peace, you have earned your peace
Your love in our hearts, we will eternally keep
Love, Hugs and Kisses

She was the best grandma in the whole world!!!! She will be missed very much 💔 not only was she my grandma she was my best friend. Also the best great grandma to my two girls! I love you so much grandma and I wish you were still here ❤️

To the Oblein family,
 Joan and I shared the love of our great-granddaughter Anilah. Over the years we’ve become friends and I would weekly stop by on Sundays to check on her and her husband. She loved life and staying busy. She was a very kind woman and will be greatly missed!

Sending our sincere condolences,

Love Martha and Lawrence!

Joan hired me at the Community Services Board and she was my first supervisor. I remember working for her at the building on Aberdeen Road in The Office of the Executive Director. Telephones, mail, Board Packages, Board meetings and last but not least, the very important Board Members, she taught me so much of what I knew at my 21 years of my employment there. I will be forever grateful to her for the knowledge and opportunity she gave me. May her family hold their memories close to their hearts. And know they have a very special guardian angel to watch over them. Rest in peace Joan, I know you will be missed by many.

I am sending my condolences to the family and  friends of Joan. i started working with Joan in 1989. shes was a very knowable person about the CSB. She was the person to go to if you needed a speech written, history or just needing help with anything CSB. She will be surely missed by all. RIP Joan. Love Redia

Sincerest condolences to the family of Joan Oblein.  She was a great co-worker at the CSB and you always knew to get your information to her in a timely fashion.  May your memories give you comfort during this difficult time and in the years to come.

Our condolences and prayers to the family. Joan was always very kind and helpful to us here at the Community Services Board. She was full of knowledge, history and was always willing to share it and assist in whatever was needed. As the Office Manager for the Executive Director's office for a number of years, Joan assured that things were well organized, in order and that the Board of Directors were informed and well taken care of. She will always be a part of the fabric of the Hampton-Newport News Community Services Board family. She is probably up in Heaven helping to keep things organized. ❤ May She Rest in Peace. Natale Christian, Executive Director, Hampton-Newport News CSB

Joan was such an important and integral part of the Hampton-Newport News Community Services Board for many, many years! She kept us organized and on-task!
