Daniel, Sara, and Louis ~ a strand of three is not easily broken. Through adversity, death, heartache ~ I pray you are flooded with beautiful, lasting memories of your mother/wife. She radiated joy and a commitment to her faith that was infectious. I pray that her spirit is ever-present. She gave her all, literally… and her work on earth is complete. Many others will come alongside you… and I know it's not the same… but it will be the body of Christ holding you up and to that end, we commit to pray for you and your needs daily. Love you all! Randi and Robert Dalgleish

Met you and your wife while visiting my daughter and son-in-law next door. She always had a smile on her face. Will keep you and your family uplifted in prayer.

Daríamos todos por estar ahí contigo, con Fona, con Myrna, Ana, Alexia, con todos, pero sé que muchos darían todo por tener la historia de una hermandad y amistad que salió de un saloncito de las Parcelas Aguas Claras del humilde pueblo de Ceiba, y salió a las naciones a bendecir a tantas vidas, muchos darían por haberte tenido en su historia, gracias Dios por habernos regalado a Joanne. Abrazos de una Parcelera que siempre te llevará en el corazón. Dios les bendiga , nuestras oraciones de fortaleza.

Sometimes we don't understand why bad things happen to good people. But what we do understand is what they meant to us and how much we will treasure what we learned from them and the private and public moments we shared with them. I am sorry for your loss. We will be praying for you and the rest of your family. We pray that you find peace and strength in the days ahead. If there is anything at all we can do please let us know.

Joanne was truly a joyful noise, and we are deeply saddened by her loss. She was one of the most gracious and loving friends I've ever had, and I will miss her very much.

December 19, 2013

I have very fond memores of Joanne as a fellow Christian, and as a colleague in the ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ. I will never forget her pastoral demeanor and her great teaching abilities. Thank the Lord for her life. To the family of Joanne and her husband Louis I say, we mourn her passing and celebrate her legacy.
Un abrazo,

Rev.Dr. Juan A. Ayala-Carmona
