Joni Marie Langum

Joe,

It was great to finally meet you at the reunion in Preston. It meant the world to me to share memories of Joni. She was blessed to have you by her side. Brian is lucky to have you. Hopefully, my return trip will afford more time to catch up and hang out with all of the Langum gang. I'm looking forward to that and finally meeting Brian. God bless you both!!

Brian

I feel blessed to have been able to say "I love you cousin, God bless you and good-bye" to Joni the week before she pasted during my recent trip to Minneapolis from Raleigh. I want to say a special "Thank you" to Joe for working me in to see Joni and Brian during my brief visit. I will always remember my last time with Joni as we smiled, laughed and remembered special times together. I truly believed God helped me schedule my trip to Minneapolis at the right time so I could see Joni before...

Joe & Brian,

Losing Joni still hasn't sunk in for me. It brings back so many memories of losing her mom.

I have many fragmented memories of my mother Dolores visiting at Bev's house while Joni, Kip, Lisa and I would hang out and be brats, as we usually were at that time.....but I digress.....Sorry!

You and Brian have been such a blessing for Joni. I thank God for bringing both of you into her life. I believe that there is a purpose for her return to Him, despite our...

Dear Brian and Joe:

Joni was a dear friend from high school, and I truly regret it has been nearly 18 years since we last saw each other.

She was sweet, sincere, so smart, and always had the best hair!

She was a wonderful friend whom I will miss dearly.

You, two, must be wonderful, too. She would have it no other way.

Joni touched my life while she was on earth, and she touched my life on her way to heaven. I am thankful for that.

Please let me...

Joni was an old school friend of mine. The last time I saw her was at Sanborn Park when her son was a toddler. Joni and I walked many of miles together when we were teenagers. From Golden Valley to Robbinsdale and back again. I have great memories of times spent with Joni and her family. Staying at her dads place in Crosby on the weekends. And spending a couple of weeks at a time at the cabin in Perham in the summer. I will always remember Joni with a smile.
My thoughts and prayers are...

Joe:
I wanted to let you know that I am praying for you and Brian during this difficult time. One thing I know for sure is that the Lord is absolutely able to do exceedingly above all that we can ask or think. When you are completely helpless He is the most helpful. When you are the neediest, He is the most sufficient. And When you are the most alone, He is ALWAYS present.

Dear Joe and Brian:

Joni came into my mind and heart the week she died. At that time, I was unaware of her death. My mother called to tell me a week later, the Wednesday before her funeral. I knew then that Joni must have reached out to touch me, and probably many others, on way her to heaven.

I have not seen Joni for 18 years. I remember her as a sweet and beautiful person. (She had the best hair of our class at Robbinsdale High School.) She was smart and way beyond her years...

In 1975 I was a 15 year old at RHS a feather haired dork wearing platform shoes and plaid pants During study hall one day I noticed this little chick with the bluest eyes the longest lashes and blond hair She noticed me - she liked me, from that moment on I walked taller felt cooler Falling in love with Joni is undescribable being loved by
