Nana, thank you for being such a loving and caring grandmother. I have all the respect in the world for you. People had you down for the count, but you wouldnt give up and you kept fighting. You believed in me, even when I didnt even believe in myself. I am so proud to be your grandson. You will always be in my thoughts and prayers. I will always remember all the good times that we shared. I love you and I will miss you.

We just learned of Joan's passing this afternoon and want Jean, Diane, Tom and Bob to know that our thoughts are with you. I could go on and on about the many many laughs we have shared at Alfred Street and always remember what a good sport she was---playing vollyball in the backyard or swimming in the pool---I can remember many summer days when I would get out of work early take a ride up and we'd sit by the pool and eat her delicious tuna salad sandwiches---I still haven't found anyone who could make them as good. Rest in peace Joan, you've had a tough time of it and now deserve a rest from all you've been through. We will always have fond memories of our time spent with you and the kids.
With our most sincere sympathy
