Joanne F. Gabbs

Joanne, I have so many great memories. Next door neighbors, we met when you were 3 and I was 4. I often think Nick, you, and I jumping into the ashes from your garage roof, roller skating at your house, climbing the redwood tree where we pretended to be John Muir, andplaying murder with all the Bullards, Niccolls, and you One special memory which captures so much is the time we went a movie in Sausalito. There was a beautiful tree on the street. I didn't know its name. I asked you...

Dear Joanne


It's been 3 months since you have left us and I often stop to think you are really gone. Will always miss you and love you.

This is such sad and shocking news for us here at Floras Lake. The nursery because of her was a sanctuary bringing both beauty and joy and a zen. Joanne was always so helpful. Am honored that her spirit, her plantings are in my yard. I know that she is tending her own beautiful zen sanctuary with the sun shining upon her and all. Pat Stannard
