My sincere sympathy to Joan's family. I met her when I worked for the Medical College and we really found we had so many things in common. Two southside polish ladies who loved to laugh and reminisce. She went to Pulaski High with my oldest brother and knew him. We both lived in Greendale at the time. A wonderfully generous lady, who I was so lucky to know. God bless you and keep you in his care. I also thought your dad (Al) was a great guy..You are in my prayers.
