Not sure what to say?

Joan was my God Mother. My mom Rose worked with Joan at the Phone Co,In San Francisco they were great friends, Joan lived downstairs from us way b 4 I was born. I spent summers with Joan & Elmo in Modesto, loving all the joys of the Deli, Elmo's parents on their farm and the love of family and food, ahh the cooking and wonderful fresh food... and the LOVE.

John, know that you were a good son. Your father is proud of the way you cared for his loving wife. Rest assured they are happy together.



I am saddened by your loss as Joan was a significant part of my childhood as neighbors we all looked out each other and our mom's were a key component to that village. Unfortunately the last of the West Granger's greatest generation has passed and they will be fondly missed. I have great memories of Joan's distinctive laugh, she was a wonderful woman. My condolences to you and your families at this difficult time.

John, Know that you were a good son. Your father is proud of the way you cared for his beloved wife. Rest assured they are happy. Our love to you, Ruby and Rob.

Mike and I are sending prayers and hugs to John and all of Joan's Family. Love you guys!

John and Ruby.....Jerry and I send our condolences. Joan must have been a remarkable woman. Linda and Jerry Kovacs
