Not sure what to say?

Joanie use to baby sit my 2 kids years ago in Watertown. My daughter was 4 and my son was 9. Those kids now are 43 and 48. She was a kind woman. I lost contact when we moved to Rome Ny..

Keeping the family close in prayer. Here is a poem I found comforting.
Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day.
Unseen, unheard, but always near.
Still loved, still missed, and very dear.

I hope Joan has finally found some peace. Heartfelt condolences to Susanne and Ron.

My condolences to the family. I knew Joan from Meddac Clinic. My prayers to the family.
