I was so sorry to hear about your mother. She was such a great person and I enjoyed her company so much when I was a teenager. She made me laugh so hard I would almost cry. She was so kind and thoughtful to me and my family and did so many things for me that I will never forget. I always enjoyed her company and can remember our many talks on your front porch. Such a great lady and friend.

Dear Mary, Tom, Mark, Celia and all of Joan's family; our very deepest sympathies go out to you at this difficult time. Joan was one of the first people to befriend us when we moved here over 25 years ago. She was a wonderful person, dear friend and will truly be missed. Our neighborhood will never be quite the same without her. Much love, Debbie & Bill and Josie & Biscuit.
