I'm so sorry for your loss, she will truely be missed by everyone that knew her. I wish I could be there with you at the difficult time. I will miss calling her Momma. But she is in heaven with my Mom and they are drinking Pepsi & Dr. Pepper looking down on all of us and saying that they some great kids that both of us had.

Joanna and family,
Please know that thoughts and prayers
are with you in these difficult times.
My sister Martha thought the world of
your Mom. Please let Christopher know
that I'm sure that Barbara and Martha
are probably sharing a Pepsi in Heaven and are talking about good times they shared.
