Joan was a surrogate Grandma to my children and loved to have them visit. Her welcome smile and kind words were always ready for them. I feel privileged to call her my friend. While you will be missed, I can only smile when I think about the wonderful reunions you are having in heaven and singing from on high!

I will always treasure my memories of Aunt Joan's beautiful voice from the recordings we have of her time singing with the Tabernacle Choir and her solos. What a wonderful talent and beautiful voice she had and shared!
My fond memories also include visiting the family when they lived in Magna, and spending time with my cousins and aunt and uncle. Some of those were even sleepovers.

Joan is the finest example of a loving, caring, and well mannered person. She has the most wonderful temperament, patience as well as the highest values. She warmed so many hearts and lightened their burdens with every opportunity; whether it was a kind word when you faced challenges, or poignant remembrance when her angelic voice. In the neighborhood...she was known as the gentle Mom; opening her home to so many...whether making those wonderful Peanut Butter and Mouthwatering home-made Jam sandwiches, or just sit down on the front porch and sharing a warm thought or just listening. Always, always, teaching something meaningful! What a wonderful person; she will be so dearly missed here in Mortality; but we all know where she is now...embracing those gone before. Those who blessed her life before, and those many of whose life she do dearly blessed. God speed to you Mom...

I am so sorry for your loss. Just remember, it is okay to feel loss. Just remember, feeling loss is a part of the healing process - for it always takes time and years to process the feelings that come with loss. For me, I have known loss to be a trial on my faith, my hope, love, appreciation, and a humbling experience. Let that loss be a trial that builds your faith, hope, etc. rather than tearing it down. Joan would be okay for you to find yourself and not to feel guilty for moving forward. it all takes time.

What a remarkable life! So happy I had the chance to know her, during her time in Maryland. Sounds like it was her time to cross over. What a glorious reunion she must be enjoying now! Still, so hard to say goodbye. Love to Matt & Lisa, Ray & Coree, and children/grands.
