Dear Carl, Gayle, Robin and family,
I was so sad to see that Joanne passed. I have very fond memories of all our activities with Troop 593.
Joanne was a simple and very caring and loving woman, yet knew how to be stern when needed! She was very much like a mom to me during some very difficult years growing up. My survival was Girl Scouts! I will lift each of you up in prayer and keep you in my heart as you learn to journey without her. She is at peace and home with her Lord.

Affectionately,
Donna Sauer
