I happened to pick up the paper and read the obituary notices and remembered how in love you both were at Steel Sales so many, many years ago.

Wess,Shawn and Shannon, I am so deeply saddened for all of you. The momment I heard the news my heart took a giant leap toward all of you. Joan was such a wonderful woman with an amazing personality, she will truely be missed. I take great comfort in knowing that her strenth has been rooted deeply inside all of you and that her spirit will remain to be felt through all that she has loved. Now I must add that God must be so full of joy having his wonderful daughter come home where she belongs. I am sure he had a great party planned.

I was looking for a nice inspirational quoate and found a touching poem that I think fits Joan:
I Have a Place in Heaven
Please don't sing sad songs for me,
Forget your grief and fears,
For I am in a perfect place
Away from pain and tears.
It's far away from hunger
And hurt and want and pride,
I have a place in Heaven
With the Master at my side.
My life on earth was very good,
As earthly life can go,
But Paradise is so much more
Than anyone can know.
My heart is filled with happiness
And sweet rejoicing, too.
To walk with God is perfect peace,
A joy forever new.

Psalms 34:18 says that "The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."
May HE be at your side during this most difficult of times.
If you should need anything, we are only a phone call away.
