I just learned of her passing, I know a few years to late. But I mist add I am saddened and offer my best wishes. Joan. Your mom your grandmother your friend. I remember her as my mother's midlife crisis or beginning senior citizens best friend. I was a young teen when they began having out. She showed my mother there was lofe after being a widow and in respect she showed me ho to love lofe to to fullest. My mother and I bought matching car. Dodge neon. Mom's what green Joan's was white. Joan was the life of ever party and the gossip after they ended. Usually spured by her. Sad to see she is gone. She was definitely a stronge memory in my life
