Henderson Family,
Our deepest sympathies are offered. May your precious memories of Joan always bring you comfort. And may the God of all comfort help you all through this difficult time.

Joan was a childhood friend and although we had lost touch over the years I remember what a great friend she was to me. She had a terrific smile and a wonderful laugh. We were constantly in trouble for whispering and giggling in class! May God's blessings give you peace and memories of your lives together give you comfort. With deepest sympathy....Susan Hayes
