I worked with Joetta. She was such a sweet lady. She was always smiling and always happy to help. Joetta had a huge heart and her personality was simply splendid. She never failed to make me smile. She always had an uplifting attitude. She will be missed. My thoughts are with her family during this difficult time.

Don & Denise, I'm sorry to hear that your mother died. I will think of her when I'm in Bergners and miss seeing her at church. She was always smiling and a happy person. My prayers are with you and your family as you deal with her passing, especially so soon after your dad died.

In sincere sympathy,
