I was so shocked to hear of Joan's passing. She was such a sweet, caring person. I have been going to see Joan every year to have my taxes done . She would sit with you and carry on a conversation as if you were one of her own relatives. I love to hear of stories she would talk about in general. She will be so greatly missed. For her family , just know that she loved you a lot. You all had a caring and loving mom and grandmother. No one on this earth can ever take that away from you. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God bless you all.

She will be loved and missed forever, she was the only person I ever knew that took people for what they were and looked over their faults.
Kind, sharing, loving, caring, generous, patient and loving that's what she was. A wonderful comforter, friend, shoulder-to-lean-on, supportive, full of LIFE, vibrant, intelligent woman she was also my Mother. I won't live a day without missing you...Loving you Always, Your Daughter, Julianne THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO TOOK THE TIME TO SIGN-IN IT MEANS ALOT!So did she!

Joan was my cousin, she was just a delightful person and was really special. She allowed our family to stay with her in her spanish styled apartment-so that my family could visit Rauschkolb-Foss relatives. I must have been 13 at the time 1972-75 and she encouraged me to draw. Her family probably still has a drawing I did of Joan when she was in High school. Today I am an artist and thankful for Joan and her encouragement. She was a giving person that was hospitable, insipirational, and giving. I know she will be greatly missed by all she touched. May God bless her family and friends.

Never could anyone ask for a better friend than Joan. Her gifts were goodness, selflessness, and laughter which she gave prodigiously. She loved her family without limit, and friends without expectation. She will be sadly, sadly missed. Ever in our hearts, her love and courage will never be forgotten

Rosa and family,
My parents have known Joan since the old days with Mac. I cannot tell you what a shock it was to hear of Joan's passing to all of us. She was such a dedicated, hard worker and she loved her family so much. Tax time was the only time we really would catch up so if we had an appointment, we all would make sure we planned out enough time to hear about everything that had happened the year before. Rosa, I know you will miss her very much. My heart goes out to all of you. May God keep you and your family close. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
