Had the privilege of meeting Joan while we both were in a golf league at Ballwin. What a fun, happy, lovely lady. So sorry that health issues caused her to give up the game. Joan will be truly missed.

Miss both of them so very much! Joan was always so kind and good to me, and had such a close relationship with Doug. She had a very good heart and I feel blessed to have known her.
Miss both of them so much! She was always very kind and good to me; and she and Doug had such a close relationship. Met her for the first time when the 3 of us went to Europe after Doug and I married. She made that trip so enjoyable because of all her knowledge about the countries we went to! What a wonderful time and such great memories! My greatest consolation is that they are together now, and my greatest hope is to see them again.
