Joni, you will remain in my memories - your beautiful smile and spirit to match. I know a family gathering won't go by without you being there in spirit. Pass over in peace sweet Joni. You did good and you left a beautiful family to prove it.

To the Hirn family. I don't think that anyone have to tell you that Joni wa truly a angel from god, All the minutes,hours,days and years we worked together made us family and all the minutes, hours, days and years we spent laughing,sharing, talking and sometimes crying together made us friends. I will always remember her as my family and friend and I will miss her dearly. I pray that you will all find peace with her passing as we know that she to, has now found her peace.each of you are in my prayers. Love Cynthia.
