To Joan's Wonderful Family a little poem that might provide a little comfort.

Sometimes we can't quite understand our Great Creator's way, when he takes
a life so young and leaves one withered, old and gray.
Whose life work seems finished, perhaps is waiting for the call.
While that life so young and tender held so much here for us all.
Then sometimes I get to thinking, perhaps this world down here below, is just a flower garden, where God's flowers live and...

Joan was a remarkable woman, a true inspiration, and one that I admired for her courage and strength. I am proud to have known her.

My condolences to the entire family. May God bless and keep you.

I am sad to hear of Joan's passing. I enjoyed knowing her when I worked for Dr. Nardis. She was always so pleasant and kind.
My prayers are with your family.

Terry, Kelsey and Lucas,

Please accept our sincere condolences on the passing of Joan. We were very sad to hear this terrible news, and wish you all the best in your time of mourning.

While we didn't know Joan very well, she seemed like such a kind and gentle soul.

They say that the good die young. Is it that God needs them more than we do? It's hard to imagine but Joan was certainly a good person through & through. I'll never forget her, her courage and her love of life. What an inspiration to us all! She will live on in all of us who knew and loved her. It will be difficult but important to carry on her legacy of love. I'm sure she would like that. God's blessings and comfort to her whole family.
