I met Joanne at bridge 2 years ago. I will miss her so much. She was always up for fun and fellowship. We drove to Florida together last fall and winter. She spent a week with me and I spent a week with her. Our friends Linda and sue joined us for a week of bridge and exploring Ana Maria island. We will all miss her get up and go attitude. And her caring heart.

I was a fellow bus driver of Joanne's for 5 years. My best memory of Joni is when we drove bus for a GR Christian field trip to Art Prize. My wife rode with me that day. There was no place to park the busses at the event so, we had to park a few blocks away. After parking, she graciously offered to drive my wife & me back to Art Prize on her bus, dropped us off & then picked us up again later to go back & get my bus. She wanted to go to but, sacrificed going so my wife & I could!
