Not sure what to say?

I started working at Prince and Princess in 2005. Every morning I would walk in the building and Mrs. Joann would greet me with her smile and joyful tone saying "GOOD MORNING MISS TAI'ANA" I can hear her now. She always talked about "HER PAM and "LITTLE MORGAN" as she would call you and when she would talk about you, you could feel the love that she had for you both. Working over there we developed a friendship like no other. She knew just about everything about me from my boyfriend...

Pam,
Our family is sorry for your loss. Miss Joann was such a gracious and loving person. Both of our children knew her through Prince and Princess. She loved children. She was so excited when she knew she would be taking care of her granddaughter. She will be missed dearly by so many.

Ms. Joann was a lovely lady. She taught my daughter and son at Prince and Princess. She showed each of them such love and patience. We are so sorry for your loss. You will be in our thoughts and prayers.

We were surprised and saddened to hear of Ms. Joann's passing. Our son, Evan, was in her preschool class at Prince & Princess for 2 years and learned so much. She was a beautiful and caring person as well as an outstanding teacher and caregiver. Evan had a wonderful preschool experience under her supervision. Our deepest sympathy and prayers are with you and your family.

Pam and Family,
I don't know if you remember me but I worked with your Mom at Prince and Princess for several years and during that time we developed a special friendship. She was such a special lady and teacher, she loved the children. Your Mom and I still exchanged Christmas cards and she had sent me 3 pictures this past year of you and her new granddaughter. Your Mom loved you so much and was so proud of you. I will miss her but I have special memories to remember her by. My thoughts...

Pam, Wayne,and extended family - I share the feelings of many others because I too thought your mom was an excellent teacher and a kind and gentle soul. She will be greatly missed by us all. Please call on me if I can help in any way. She was there many times for me and Brandon. I am so glad we got by to see her before she retired. I'll be in touch.

Pamela,
Im so sorry to hear that Ms Joann is gone. She took care of my kids at Prince and Princess for almost four years. My daughter started in her class this year before she retired. She was such a precious lady and I know that you and your family will miss her a great deal. Mackenzie was heartbroken to hear of her leaving but said that she knew Ms Joann was in heaven and watching all of us. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Joann was an amazing, wonderful, and thoughtful lady. Her gentle and kind spirit will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
Pam, we know this is a loss beyond words. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the entire family at this time.
