I had the pleasure of working with Joann for the past several years. We only had phone contact but I felt I got to know her very well. She always spoke fondly of her family and always seemed to enjoy holiday preparations, especially baking her holiday cookies. She told me several times about her trips to the casinos and how much fun she had. So sorry for your loss. Terri Nicholson (Catucci Oil)
