Joan was just an incredible lady. One of my mother's best friends in the years at Hamilton Manner Nursing home. Always a joy to be around and so wonderful to the people she cared for. Although saddened by her loss, I rejoice in knowing that she suffers no more. All is well where she is. I pray and wish for peace for her family.
