Not sure what to say?

Rest in peace dean Joan. I met you years ago at UAW 6000 and found out you were from Caro, MI. my hometown. What a joy it was to share memories of Caro and our families. I know you, Paul and MaryLee are having a ball in Heaven. You were one of the few good ones. God bless your soul sweet Joan.

Joan was a pleasure to know and will be sorely missed by all. My deepest sympathy to her family.

I already miss you so much, Grammie. But I still hear your voice in my head everyday and I know you're watching over our family.

Joan was a remarkable lady. Joan never met a "wrong" she did not want to "right". I enjoyed working with her on union activities over the years. I was proud to be a friend. Many of us spent many hours in her living room laughing and planning our tasks at hand. It was my pleasure and honor to have known her. My condolences to her family.

The highlight of my trips home were when my favorite Aunt would come to Caro to visit, just loved the stories of growing up with my Dad.take care of Mom and Dad.you will always be in my prayers. Love you Aunt Joan.
