Dave,
I just found out about Joey. I had known her for many years through Wendy. I know the sorrow and pain you feel about loosing a child. Wendy and Joey meet in high school and were friends for many years. If it's any consolation to you, Wendy passed away on March 15, 2010 (age 35). I'm sure Wendy was there to greet Joey into heaven.

Sending our love, thoughts and prayers to our entire families. I have not seen my cousin Joey in many years but will always remember her beautiful warm smile. When we were younger and I would see her often I remember thinking to myself I want to look just like her, absolutely stunning! I read this today and thought of Joey, "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal"

Sending my deepest and sincere sympathy. JoAnna was one of those girls in high school that despite her beauty was friends and kind to everyone, showing her beauty on the inside as well. Hoping her kids and family can find some comfort in knowing she now walks with the Lord but her spirit lives in their heart's of everyone who her light has touched.
