Words are hard to come by at this time. We were not prepared for the sudden passing of our dear cousin JoAnn. She brought such joy to all the family during her lifetime. Her beautiful smile and kind heart will have to sustain us until we meet again in eternal heaven. We loved you "madly" and always will.
Ellie & family
