Mrs. Becknell was my CAPA art teacher at Wilson. I have never had the talent for drawing but did well in other areas. She always supported me and celebrated how "abstract" my work was. At the age of 42 I've still held onto my terrible drawings and painting. God bless her soul.

Joan truly was a 2nd Mom to us growing up on S.3rd St. Rockford, Illinois. We have many fond memories of her, Fred, Beth & June living upstairs from us. One memory that comes to mind is when she and our Mother drove our Green VW Bus to Seneca, South Carolina to pick up me & Cindy after a summer visit to Nono Tony & Gramma Frances. May we all celebrate a her life during this time of sorrow.
