I met Joani years ago while working at BI. One of the nicest kindest people I have ever known. I just learned of her passing.
Joani thank you for all your kind words. Your sense of humor. You are one of a kind.

joan was always such a joy to be around. She always took such good care of Roger and had such a great sense of humor. Always enjoyed having them come into the clinic (CMFA). My deepest sympathies to you Roger and your family. She will be greatly missed.

I'll miss your humor, the fact that we grew up together. The fun times we had even in high school. Although we lived a distance apart and not seeing each other much In later years I would think of you once in a while and smile to myself. Rest peacefully.
