Dear Joe, Joy and Joe: Extremely sorry to hear of Joan's passing. She was a very kind person and she also was very nice to my grandchildren when we were together. I will miss her and I hope your fond memories of her will comfort you all. Sorry I couldn't be there in person to hug you all however I had a babysitter problem.
