This is so sad
As a kid my mom delivered papers and Joe and Joann were 1 of my favorite places to go bc I knew there was always a smile a friendly face and a treat of some kind.
I forever cherish every moment of knowing Joann her late husband and their children...some of the most fabulous people I´ve ever been around.
