I just learned of Joan's passing and am so very sorry. I worked with her for several years. She was very dedicated and genuine. I have been corresponding with her since I retired in 1993 and will certainly miss her emails and letters. Her family was most important to her. I will miss a TRUE friend. Millie Sobottke

Joan told me one time she promised our father she would keep an eye on us when he was gone. She certainly did that. Joan never let me get away with not responding to her e-mails.

Dear Milt, Mike, Steve, Laura and Gus, Joan was like a sister to my Dad (Bud). When he passed, she eased our aching hearts with stories and memories of growing up on the south side of Chicago. When Uncle Bob's illnesses started this past year, she was the strong one, providing sound advice with a dose of reality and compassion which was unmatched. We will miss her dearly and keep you all in our thoughts and prayers. Love alwasy, Bud's daughter Diane (kaczmarek)

I did not meet Joan in person but was a recipient of her e-mail updates and I kept her informed of goings on in my family; she was cousin to my father, John Kaczmarek and uncle Bob Kaczmarek. She was en encourager to me. Judy Mathias

Joan's passing brings about a great loss in our lives! She brought magic to those who knew her. I actually don't remember meeting her. However, I have the fondest memories of corresponding by letter with her. Her kindred spirit warmed my heart. We are going to miss Joan!!
