I enjoyed working with Joanne in the late 80's and early 90's at the Kent SD. Joanne always wore a smile and was such a joy to be around. My thoughts and prayers go out to Joanne's family as I know she is sorely missed.

Dear Joe and Lin.
Joann and I go back a long way. She and I have been good friends since 1963. We worked together, played together and laughed together.. She is such a special friend to this day and I will miss her more than words can say as I know you will.
I just want you to know how much I loved being part of her life and what a loyal friend she always was to me. I also want you Joe, to know that you were the love of her life. She adored you.
Lin, you were not only her sis but her best friend.
God bless each of you and remember she is only a thought away.
Her friend always....
