Joan Mary Cornfield, 1932-2023
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Joan Mary Cornfield a great spiritual environmentalist and founding member of P.O.W.E.R.
She was instrumental in changing the policy to stopping garbage in the Niagara Escarpment open gravel pits. She was an unending power of hope to the Environment. She will be missed by many. She blazed the way for P.O.W.E.R. to be acrrdited to the United Nations, taking part in the Earth Summit in Brazil in 1992. Her bold participation allowed for P.O.W.E.R. to become very involved with environment, ecology, and ecosystems, wildlife and wildlands, at the International level. If it was not for Joan, we would have never become who we are.
