Joan, Mary, and I go back to 2nd grade at Sacred Heart of Jesus school. What a blessing to have friendships for 73 years. I always thought of Joan as my sister & I thought of her parents like my own, & she felt the same about mine. We shared so many wonderful memories over the years & we were there for each other during some difficult times. Always in my heart dear friend.

Joan and I have been friends since we were seven years old. We went to grade school and highschool together. Fun memories include CYO dances, fish fries, making pizzas together and having a crush on the same cute guy. Over the past few years we've been doing a long distance book study with another friend. I will miss Joan always and I know she is watching over all of us and dancing in Heaven. Love, Mary Kettner.
