I worked with Aunt Joan for 14 years at Pell Rudman. She was an attractive, vibrant, smart and witty woman, and I looked up to her. She had some great sayings for what life throws at you, and I've incorporated them into my own repertoire. After all that time, I considered her and Uncle Walter family. I was devesated to hear of her passing so soon after Uncle Walter's. She was a remarkable person, and I will always remember her. My sincere condolences to the Kirby family.

Working with Aunt Joan at Pell Rudman made every day a "special" one, and her caring, kind, witty personality helped to create our extended family atmosphere. The memories of Aunt Joan will continue to live with all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

So sorry to hear of Mrs. Kirby's passing. She was such a great person, so full of fun; just lovely. I have many fond memories of the "group", the Kirby's, the Drohan's and the Delaney's.

For the eight years of my employment at Pell Rudman, Aunt Joan was a confidant, supporter, and caregiver to all. She took interest in our work, our homes, and our children. Her energy, cheerfulness, and witticisms made the firm a fantastic place to work. Long after I left she stayed in touch and she always was a friend.
Our deepest sympathies to the entire extended Kirby family. "AJ" was ablsolutely one of the best.

I knew 'Aunt Joan' (as we called her) when I worked at Pell Rudman several years ago. She was really the spirit of the Pell Rudman family atmosphere - which is what made it special to work there. She was like our corporate mascot and walking in to the office and seeing her was always a great start to the day. She was really just a special person and will be missed.
