Andy and I were so saddened to learn of Joann's passing. She was so sweet and kind to my mother-in-law Marilyn who was her roommate at RNH. Joann always put a smile on my face when I saw her and had only lovely things to say about everyone. I feel privileged to have known her and may she rest in peace.
