Joan Kupfer

Dear Mike,

May you find peace in the joy you brought one another and that Joan is no longer in pain. May her children find comfort in your devotion to their dear mother.

Sincerely,

Linda

Joan and I were born on the same day - a coincidence of fate! We were distantly related and were friends from our earliest days. We never lost touch, even when we were separated by countries and oceans. We had many happy times and I will miss her friendship greatly. I console myself knowing that she and Mike had a happy life together- they were soul mates and shared a love that few people ever have. Your lifetime friend, Rita

Dear Mike and Family,

I have many happy childhood memories of Aunt Joan when our families would get together on weekends, holidays, birthdays and vacations at the shore. She was a fun Aunt and made times fun for us. May she RIP. Love, Robin Cassidy

Dear Mike and Family,

We are so sorry about the passing of our Aunt Joan. We have many happy memories of growing up together and of our lively and pretty Aunt. Her spark and sparkle will be with us forever.! Love, Ruthie Cassidy Brown (Rita's daughter)

Dear Mike and Family - So sorry to hear of Joan's passing. You have my deepest sympathies. I didn't have the pleasure of meeting Joan, but if she was anything like you Mike, she must have been quite the gal. Sounds like you had a full life together. May God bring His peace during this difficult time and may the good memories you have of her comfort you in the days ahead. - From one of Mike's shipmates on the Lex.

Ms Joan you were an angel to me as well as an inspiration. Your stories, the love you showed to your husband and life general are more valuable than any dollar I've ever earned. I loved you and will miss you dearly! I will remember you and your sweet heart always....

Joan will be greatly missed yet I know she is in a better place and free of pain. Love, Joie
