Joan Scoble Pellett

After graduation, I worked at Pacific Press (Vancouver Sun & Province newspapers) in the Production Dept. In 1979 I started selling real estate in Greater Vancouver and quit when I married David and moved to a small acreage in Charlie Lake, BC (Mile 50 on the Alaska Hwy) in 1981. What a culture shock that was: downtown Vancouver to a remote rural location! In '91 we were transferred with David's company to an even more remote place: Willow Flats (40 km west of Chetwynd, BC)to a company housing station. In '93 we were again transferred with his company to our current location of Savona (on Kamloops Lake west of Kamloops halfway between Kamloops and Cache Creek). My years in the rural post office in Charlie Lake got me a job in the Savona Post Office, where I worked until 2007. I also worked in the office of our local general store for 5 years and recently quit to spend time at home while pursuing the development and marketing of a new product,CuddleWraps IV & Bandage Covers, with the inventor (The company is for sale so anyone interested in more info please contact me!!! Great potential!).
I have 2 stepsons who both live and work in the Fraser Valley; 4 grandsons; large extended family for both myself and David are an important part of our lives.
David retired from Westcoast Energy in 1993 to focus on his own business; he has currently returned to work full time at Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops.
We enjoy volunteering in our community. Living in a small place keeps us active! We have been fortunate to spend recent winters in Indio, CA; if anyone is here between Nov and Mar please email me and let's get together in Snowbirdland...
If you're coming to Kamloops area I'd love to get together and catch up! Just email me... [email protected]
Best Regards,
Joan (Scoble) Pellett
