My heartfelt sympathy to the Joanie´s family. Dr. Joanis was our family´s dentist after we relocated from New Haven and provided all our dental care until adulthood. The Joanis family was always kind and hosted a good friend of mine in High School( Jesse), who was an exchange student from Kenya. Keeping you all in our prayers
