Amy & Guy,

Our prayers and thought are with you.

I will never forget the shopping trips to Peddler's Village with my grandmother and Joanne. When ever I pass a corn field, I always remember Joanne saying "boring, boring, boring". I am not sure how that came about, But I never forgot it and never will.

She was loved by all and will truely be missed by all!

I really loved your Mom, and I feel luckiy to have been able to spend time with her this past year. And to Ms. Kelsey Stauffer and her mom, you were a gift to Aunt Joanne that can never be measured. I know she treasured your role in her life.

We are so sorry for your loss. Your Mom was such a great, funny, warm and loving person.

Amy, please know that you, Guy and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. It would be nice to talk with you (I know it's been a while). My email address is [email protected]..

Take care,
