It was a very sad day when we heard the news of Joann's passing, but also a blessing to know she was no longer suffering. She always made everyone feel so welcome. We have fond memories of picnics when Joann was ready to feed an army with great food. She will be greatly missed. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Love,
