Joanna was a wonderful, warm, wise and vivacious person and I had the pleasure of working with her in hospitality at the World Affairs Council. My thoughts go out to her family.

Joanna was amazing; funny, giving, bright, quick and loving. It was my great honor getting to know her as a member of staff of the World Affairs Council. Thank you for all that you did in life Joanna and may you now be happily reunited with George!

Joanna (and George, too) were such very special people and always supportive of others. Joanna got me very involved in the World Affairs Council shortly after I returned form 3 years in Germany. She put me to work at a Consular Corps Reception on Landor's Ferry Boat and I was hooked. I loved working with her and George as they were so involved, creative and interesting to be with. I'll miss her! Meg Franklin (Felso)
