Postle family- l to r- Gary,Joanne,Roger,Charlie,Kathy, Jeff and Mark

Joanne was my Mother-in-law. I was truly blessed to have her in my life. She was the most dedicated Catholic woman I have ever known. She never had a bad thing to say about anyone, she never judged anyone, she treated everyone as she would have wanted to be treated. She prayed for every person she ever met. Jeff & I would make her laugh so much, and her comment would be: "I swear, you 2 are perfect for each other." God has blessed me to be a part of the Postle family, and to have had such a...

From the day I opened my eyes, I fell in love with the most beautiful woman in the world. As time went by she gave me the love and support I always needed. Most of all, Mom showed me that Jesus was the way, the truth and the life. She showed me every day in her actions and in her words. Mom was kind, tender, giving and loving, she was my everything. I hope in someway, someday, to be just like her.
Jesus said: Those who see the Son also see's the Father. So I ask those who see me, will...

Joanne was a wonderful neighbor to our daughter. Caring for her as her own. I remember when visting our daughter, she would immediately come to the fence and talk to us, telling us how much we were missed. Smelling her wonderful food as it dwarfed across the airwaves, wishing I was at her dinner table, are precious memories.
We will miss you when we are there to visit. Roger, we will be thinking of you and your family.
Always,

The Postles have been my surrogate family for many, many years. Joanne was a very loving and giving person. She welcomed Bill and I into her family with open arms. She brought joy to everyone she came into contact with. She had a heart of gold. I don't have words to describe how much I'm going to miss her. I love you, Joanne.

Joanne was a wonderful,kind friend who had a compassionate heart. Joanne was also very patient and non judgemental! Joanne and I became close friends because we sat together at the 6:00/5:30 Sunday service for the last 14/15 years at St. Mary Magdalen. We would laugh and share stories before church would start, and at times, I thought that that we might get into trouble for laughing! Anyone that knows Joanne, would know that when she started to giggle, . . . . well, watch out! I think God...

Grandma will forever hold a special place in my heart. She was an amazing woman with such an enormous heart. Her laugh was contagious. Her love of food and the amount she could consume makes me smile. I love that my boys were able to know and love her. I will remember you always, Grandma. I love you!
