Joan Cunnane was the mother-in-law of Pennsylvania Democratic Rep. Madeleine Dean. The Congresswoman remembered Cunnane as an activist who campaigned for Barack Obama and fought for civil rights and voting rights. She said the family would miss “her passion, quick wit, linguine and clams — and her love and dedication to human rights and women’s rights.”
