My Sympathy to Joan's Family. There were countless times I called her in the morning to see if she could work at Cedar Rail or Parkview that day. She amazed me with her cheerfulness & smile each time I talked to her. What a remarkable spirit she shared with everyone.

I knew Joan as "Joanie" when she was my neighbor and Girl Scout leader many, many years ago. She was always so much fun and full of joy, and she was great with us girls. I will always remember her that way.

Leo, Sarah, and Benjamin, my deepest sympathies to you. I cannot imagine how difficult it is losing your wife and mother so young. Even though we have not been in touch for many years, I fondly remember some of the great times we had as children.
We did see you in Marshfield about 10 years ago having lunch at the Chinese buffet that was by Festival. I hope the wonderful memories you have shared will help you through this difficult time.

Dear Leo & Family, Cousin Mark/Terri & Family, & Uncle Lawrence & Auntie Gertie. We were so sorry to hear about Joan's passing. The special memories we have of Joannie were of course when she babysat for us when we were little. She was always a lot of fun, she was a good cook, she genuinely loved taking care of us. We believe this character followed her through her life. We know her illness was a long journey, but it didn't take her spirit. We will remember her smile. Our thoughts & prayers are with you today & always. Brian (Donna) Schulist, Lynn (Joe) Zdroik, Leah (Russell) Trzebiatowski & Brady (Tana) Schulist.

Thinking of your family. I only met Joan twice, but from stories I've heard from Sarah, she was a very strong woman and loved very much. Her incredibly strong spirit will live on in your hearts, and even though she isn't here with you, she will be guiding you with silent support and love in everything you do.

To Joan's family-it is hard to believe that Joan is gone. No words can express our sympathies. We have prayed for her,and now she is where God called her to. And we will see her when it is our time. Marge Kaminski Handschke-cousin to Joan
