I am sorry for your loss. Joan and I were childhood friends and our birthdays were one day apart. I remember many fun days riding bikes and playing in the "woods" behind your house before the "new" part of Dawson Drive was built. We lost track over the years but I hope she lived a happy and peaceful life. Anne Donohue (formerly of 55 Dawson Drive.
