Misty and Family,

I have followed Joanna's situation via the internet for some time and was so sorry to hear about her passing. When we were children at First Baptist Church, Lyons, who knew we'd have these kinds of trials here? Joanna sounded like a delightful person and I know it is a great comfort to know that she is in heaven and not suffereing; however, I know that you will miss her terribly in the coming months. My family's prayers are with you all.

McAfee Family,

I'm a former student of Mrs. McAfee and I just want to say that I'm sorry to hear about your loss. May God be with you at this time. God gained an angel. I read about her story and she is truly an inspiration to me and many other people.

Our thoughts and parayers are with you as you walk through this time in your lives. I know you are comforted knowing when little Joanna walked through the gates of Heaven her grandfather Mr. Tommy Rogers was awaiting her arrival. What a great thought!!

Dear Jeff, Misty, Paul and family,

I was so saddened to hear of your loss. I never met any of you but have followed Joanna's story thru my email friends who have met you.

I have prayed for Joanna and now continue to pray for you in your time of sorrow and loss. That you have given the Glory to God has inspired me and touched me so very deeply. I know that Joanna is so very happy with Him and you can now look forward to that time when you can be with her again in her healthy glorified body knowing that she is forevermore safe.

God Bless and keep you,

Michaela Millard is my grandchild, I believe she and Joanna met at the cancer center in Tampa. Michaela went to be with Jesus on December 21. We miss her greatly as you do Joanna, but we are assured that they have no more pain or sorrow in heaven. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Even in our sorrow and tears it is easy to see how blessed we were to hold these two precious little girls for a brief time.

God bless and comfort you.

To Joanna's family & friends

You all are will be in

my prayers and sympathies.

We can rest assure that

Joanna is not suffering any

more and never will again because

she is in Jesus loving arms.

She probably already has her

Angel wings and is catching frogs

and butterflies in Heaven.

We will have a wonderful

reunion in Heaven one day when we

see her up there.

I work in an elementary school

and I find the children in her

age group so rewarding,I have

said before I can go in down and

before to long they lift my spirits

up, I think they help me more

than I help them.

May God Bless You all.

I will be praying for you.

May God Bless you and your family at this sad time! Know that I will keep you'll in my prays! Love Gup
