I was saddened to hear about Joan's passing. I knew Joan when I performed in a show with her at St. Bart's. We became friends and I used to go skating with her at the Sky Rink since I was an avid figure skater myself. She also invited me to the Grand Opening of Wollmans Rink where she performed. She was a wonderful, lovely person and I shall never forget her. May she rest in peace.

You were an inspiration to skaters you didn't even know.
We all remember your grace on skating and personality

As a salesrep for Scribners I was fortunate to meet Mr and Mrs Scribner at our annual meetings. I will always remember this lovely couple. Today's Rosary is for them and I will add them to my list of souls to pray for at Mass each Sunday. Eternal rest grant to them oh Lord and let perpetual light shine upon them.

I also remember skating with her during freestyle sessions at (33rd St.) Skyrink, in the early '80's when I first started skating. Such an elegant, inspiring, lovely skater, and lady; always looked as though she enjoyed skating. My condolences to her family and friends.

I remember skating with Joan at the SCNY in the early 1980s. We never spoke, but she always smiled at me. I was a very shy 18-year-old. Looking back, I thought she was very generous by doing that. My condolences to her loved ones and friends.
