Dear Vince,
I am so sorry for your loss. As you have probably heard from many of your friends, your mom was like a second mom to us. She was a generous spirit who opened up her heart and her house to what, at times, must have seemed like an endless line of young adults with all kinds of teenage angst. Her vocation as a nurse extended well beyond her job at the hospital; she was always on call, available to listen, and eager to offer advice. Most of the details have faded from my memory over the last 29 years, but I still warmly recall sitting around the kitchen table talking with your mom, often late into the night and early in the morning. Now that I think about it, she wasn't just a generous spirit, she was/is a Saint. Yet, as much as she cared for the “extended family” made up of her children's friends, it didn't even compare to her devotion to and love for her immediate family. Your mom was a wonderful woman who has unfortunately left this world much too early. However, the fact that her memory lives on, even in an old high school friend who has not had the pleasure of spending time with her for nearly three decades, is hopefully a testament that she lived a meaningful life.

Dear Angie and Family,
I know how it is to feel the loss of someone so close. I lost my son two years ago. Joann was a beautiful woman it was so delightful watching her and you dad Dance the night away. She was a breath of fresh air. I speak for those who knew her at the La Mirage. I will alway remember Joann happy and I know we will meet again someday. For now she is dancing in heaven and making people laugh with her warm and friendly smile. May God comfort you and your family.. Evelyn

Dear Angie & Family
I was so privileged to know your mother, wife. We rode the school bus together, plus rode the horses. She was a beautiful person inside and out.
May God comfort you in this time of sorrow.
