Not sure what to say?





My Deepest sympathies for losing your wonderful mom--Joan was very wonderful, always helpful, kind and spoke her mind. Working with her at KPMG was great, and after she retired I enjoyed visiting and doing things together. She was an amazing and wonderful friend, I will miss her dearly and I know you all will too.

I was very sad to hear of Joannie's death. We both lived on Catalpa and played together as children. We went to a grade school reunion a few years back together. We met often at the Damen bus stop on Ravenswood. I was just mentioning her name last week. I was shocked to hear of her death. Sorry for your loss!! Alice Dungan

It was very sad to learn of Joan's death. She was my admin assistant @ KPMG in Chicago for many years. She was so valued as a work colleague and a terrific lady. The memories of Joan that I have, which are many, are fond and full of class.

Joan was one of the finest women I have ever known. I was hired at KPMG to replace Joan when she was promoted and I owe her so much for her gratious, daily acts of kindness - making my transition easier and more pleasant than it sometimes deserved. I have missed her for a long time.
