Always smiling and ready to pitch in, she brought a wonderful, cheerful demeanor to our group.

Joan and I worked together at Riverton City where I learned to love and appreciate her talents and dedication. Occasionally we would go to the symphony or plays together and always enjoyed going out to eat before the event.
I have moved from Riverton and have recently been thinking so much about Joan and decided I would get in contact with her. I'm sorry I waited too long.
Joan was such a talented lady with a great sense of humor, and I will miss her immensely.
