Dear Family,
Joann was a amazing friend and neighbor. She was kind, funny and loving. She was always willing to lend a hand if we needed help. We have so many fond memories of Joann. I will miss our talks we had on our front porch. We will never forget how she dominated a cornhole competition at our picnic. We will miss our amazing friend.
Sending Love and Hugs,
Anita, Eric and Sam Pickar
