I'm so sorry to hear of Joann's passing. I've known this beautiful lady for nearly fifty years, having been in Extension Club with her. I always enjoyed hearing her share her thoughts and knew it was reciprocated. I will miss her.

Hello Chris and Don,
I have such wonderful memories of all the times our families spent together. Your mom and I shared many a cuppa in each others kitchens over the years. I'm glad she's been with you so long.
