Joe, Praying for you and your family.May God give you strength as you go through the coming days. God bless you.

Loved you Joanie. Proud to have spent time with you. You will be be missed by everyone that knew you.

I will always remember Aunt Joanie's boisterous laugh sitting around the dinner table telling stories and playing games with her siblings, kids, nieces and nephews. She will be missed. The entire Eccles and Bannister families are in our thoughts and prayers.

As if this world weren't getting bad enough ,now we have lost one of the purest souls. I cannot express my sadness.May you be forever free to shine your loving light on us all.

this lady right here
was so amazing she would encourage anyone to do their best
to me she did not judge
she always welcomed me into her life and home with open arms and an open heart
and this is so hard to believe that she is gone
life will not be the same

Joanie
go rest high on that mountain
i love you
