JoAnne was my roommate at Wilson College for 3 years. We attended peace marches together, so I was a witness to the beginning of her advocacy for peace and justice. A lifelong friend, I am awed by all she accomplished, and know that she will be missed by all her friends and colleagues. Rest well my friend, you touched us all. Elsa

In loving memory of a friend, travel companion and activist... We shared so many wonderful times on trips and I always admired your artistic skills, compassion for others and the many aspects of a very active life. I share with the community a heavy sense of loss and give my deepest condolences to the family.

My Dear JoAnne,
Although we met for the first time only 3 short years ago, I was blessed to have you in my life. You were always willing to help with all our efforts to make our democracy work for everyone. Your kindness, energy and commitment to causes to help the most vulnerable among us knew no bounds. We had fun times too at your parties and your gatherings, celebrating the Winter Solstice and Valentines Day. I will always keep you close in my heart, as the last time we spent...
