I am very, very sad to hear about Joanna's passing (and surprised). She was a very kind soul. I did not know her well but when my wife passed away about 3 years ago she and her husband Scott were very kind to me - and most importantly - to my then 16 year old daughter Izzy. I know Joanna from our mutual love of the Berkshires of western Massachusetts. She seemed to enjoy the concerts at Tanglewood, boating on the Stockbridge Bowl and hanging out with my neighbors up there David and Cheryl Brause. I know that she so loved her son and daughter. Izzy and I send love and condolences to the family. I will never forget that Joanna went way out of her way to go to my wife's funeral in Brooklyn. She was a lovely person. I will miss her.

You and your Dad were the first people outside of my family to believe in me and help me realize my dreams. Have always and will always have part of my heart.
