Joanie Kay was my Eastmoreland neighborhood friend ( she lived around the block from me),and fellow red head classmate. We attended Duniway Elementary and Cleveland High School together.
Joanie was always a fun person to be around. She knew how to include people in whatever the activity was at the time. I am so sorry to hear of her passing. I will always remember her as such a caring, positive person.
