I knew Joan through her sister Tricia who married my brother Cliff. I would see her at family gatherings and she was so loving and giving to all her family. I am praying for all you dear family that you find comfort knowing she is with the Lord, perfectly healed, and at rest.

Joan are a friend that no one could ever forget. We’ve been friends since grade school. Your loving kindness you show toward others, always there and willing to help friends and family be it bringing food or just listening. I’ll miss those qualities along with your beautiful smile and never ending heart of gold. You were there when my parents and my brother passed. You called or texted me to see if I was ok or needed anything. I’ll miss you forever, our luncheons and dinners you and Mary started without your laughter and smiling face being there. I love you. Forever in my heart. Karen Manor

Joan you a true friend I’ve known since grade school. Your smile, loving kindness was visible wherever you were. When my parents and brother passed you were there, calling texting to see if I was ok or needed anything. Our paths were so intertwined later in life, through you work friends who were friends of mine to relatives of yours who are very dear to me as well. You are such a caring, giving, loving friend no one could ever forget. I’m eternally grateful to have you in my life. Although you will be missed I know you are at rest. I’ll miss your smile & laughter at the luncheons you and Mary started so many years ago. Love you dear Joan until we meet again, Karen Manor
