Not sure what to say?

I haven' seen much of Joanie in recent years but I enjoyed very much our ski team days at both Reno High School and the University of Nevada. She was such a fighter and a poster girl for patients with ALS for the spirit and determination with which she battled her illness. Kudos to her sister Linda Crossett, her cousin Barbara Callison and her devoted friends Marian and Ted Osgood for their love, attention and devotion over the many years she was ill.

My thoughts and prayers are with...

Joanie will be missed , she was a wonderful person and we had so many goodtimes running and skiing and of course drinking beer..

I met Joani and Harry in Quincy. I loved her spirit and love of life. She will be deeply missed.

My heart felt condolences to the family. May Joani rest in peace.
