I have so many funny and happy memories of working with Joann at S.O.S. She would always tell us about her family, her sisters and nieces and nephews whom she adored. She loved hearing about our families and what was going on with us. I'll always remember her listening to the radio and singing the songs while we where working. I'll never forget those times. We will miss her very much and she will always be in my prayers. With much love, Brenda Rodriguez
