Joan G. Strader

Because of Joan and John Strader, MANY persons were able to attend a prestigious university and receive high quality training in the art of organ.
I am forever grateful for such an opportunity. We will not forget and it is my prayer UC-CCM will not forget. Joan Strader was an exceptional human being and the honor to know her and share life with her is a gift. Blessings on the family and may music resound in her presence forever.

Joan and John Strader were dear friends as well as sincere patrons of the arts in Cincinnati. Their love of
the theatre organ was unparalled. They made it possible for the American Theatre Organ Society in the city to place the Albee Wurlitzer organ in the
Emery Theatre where I and many others played for
many years. Joan loved life, had a great sense of humor and a super laugh to go along! Love you, Joan. Rest in peace. God bless your family at this time of loss.
