Hubing, Joan E. (4 July 1945 – 6 February 2023)

Joan E. Hubing, 77, of Neillsville, passed away at Pine View Care Center in Black River Falls, on Monday, February 6, 2023.

Joan Ethel Hubing was born on July 4, 1945, in Loyal, the daughter of Joseph M. and Helen L. (Anderson) Hubing. She was raised on the family farm, and received her education in the Loyal area, graduating from Loyal High School in 1963. After high school, Joan attended Accredited Beauty School in Eau Claire, and became a licensed beautician. She worked for Emma Rotjer in Loyal, for one year, and then in 1966, she moved to Neillsville and worked for Mary Ellen Bertz. She later purchased the beauty shop from Mary Ellen, and worked until poor health forced her to retire in January 2022.

She was a member of St. Mary's Catholic Church in Neillsville, was a former recipient of the Neillsville Chamber of Commerce Business of the Year Award, and was on several civic committees for the community of Neillsville over the years.

Joan had many interests, but especially loved woodworking, gardening, bowling, golfing, watching the Packers and Brewers, and following Loyal High School sports.

She will be dearly missed by three siblings: Carol Hubing of Neillsville, Jerry (Cathy) Hubing of Loyal, and Sharon (Marty) Briceland of Greenwood; one daughter: Sara (John) Lash of Madison; three grandchildren: Sydney, Heidi and Drew; nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends. Joan was preceded in death by her parents, and one brother, Duane Hubing.

Gregory Michaud will officiate, and burial will follow in St. Anthony Catholic Cemetery. Pallbearers will be Ryan Hauge, Donald Boon, John Hubing, Richard Loos, Richard Hagen and Lowell Gesche. Visitation will be held at the church, on Friday, from 9 a.m. until time of service.
