Sally, I am so very sorry to hear about the loss of your wonderful daughter, Joann. I remember her fondly from the first time I met her when you used to live on Wilshire and you and her would exercise together up and down the block. Beautiful memories of a vibrant woman! I also remember seeing her at the Art Festival numerous times--she was so dedicated to that event over many years. She was admired by a lot of people in the community.

It has been many years since I saw Joann but I sure thought of her often. She was so sweet to me and my kids, I took care of her at night and she was gracious enough to invite my children and myself to view fireworks with her several times. She was a fantastic person and truly an inspiration to many. She will be missed but remembered fondly.
