The Specialness you brought to me and I'm sure others like me, truly you'll will be missed by us all, and I'm so sadden by it all, but God makes no mistakes, he sent his special Angel to let you know it was time for you to come home where life will eternally be worry less, non suffering, and never a day of sickness or hurt. We love you Ms. Joann and we know you're in a much better place, because now you can be the true Angel of protection for us all, and surely we'll see you again when the good Lord calls us home....
