Joan M. DeStephano

Joan was a true friend and she will forever be in our hearts. Heaven has a great lady. Ray and Judy Mazzolini

Joan was a dedicated friend, relentless champion for those she cared about and a wonderful child-like spirit. I will miss our talks about life, time at her beautiful home and our girls' outings each summer. Joan, you will remain in our heart always.

Joan was a co-worker and dear friend who worked tirelessly at all that she did. I will remember her kindness, her good humor and her unrelenting spirit. My deepest sympathy to her husband and to her family.

Joan,
Thank you so much for being a friend, leader, and an inspiration to the community. You will always be in our hearts and on our minds as we take up your torch for the continuation of the restoration efforts for the DuPage Theatre.

Joan clearly had that "giving spirit." Her involvment in Lombard development issues, especially Rt. 53, showed that she had the people's interest at heart.

Joan was a true crusader. She will be & is missed. Our thoughts & prays go out to her husband & family.

Joan we thank you for all your hard work on behalf of all Lombardians and especially District One. We will miss you!

We are constituents in Joan's Lombard district. Her enthusiasm for getting projects moving was contagious. I still picture her walking down the street, going door-to-door in her winter hat meeting the people of the neighborhood when she was running for trustee. Her contributions to Lombard will always be remembered and revered with the resurrection of the DuPage Theatre. Thank you, Joan, for your dedication to your community!

Joan's efforts on behalf of citizens working to get better response from government, and better highways that respect our quality of life were deeply appreciated. Sincere sympathies to the entire family.
