Thank you so much for all of the wonderful memories I gathered with you and Jennifer in my teen years. Jennifer came into my life when I was desperately trying to hide from everyone and opened my life up to an amazing world of music, family and strange-but-fun family gatherings. I am so grateful to you and your family for welcoming me into your lives and helping me break out of my shell. You are one of the most dynamic and vibrant people I have ever met. I love you like the kooky,...

"Aunt Joan" joined our YaYa board in support of her dear niece Ginni, but she was a true YaYa in her own right. We loved (and still love) Ginni and AJ. We will miss AJ, but are comforted to know that she is now with Ginni and Mason. Don't worry, AJ and Trace, we'll keep holding on tight whenever Karen needs us! Love you Joan, my Sisterfriend.

You are my Sister,
in mind, heart and soul
I love you so much,
I pray that you know.
We weren’t always together,
life sometimes kept us apart.
But no matter the distance,
you were in my heart.
We were blessed with good times
that I'll never forget
That they weren’t more frequent
is my only regret.
In my time of sadness
as I watched you move on
I was comforted in remembering
what I knew all...
