My warm thoughts, heartfelt sympathy, and fondest memories are with you today.

Aunt Joan was a great, great lady, and taught me to always have an open heart and open door.
She had a tremendous influence on me and is a part of the mother I am today. I will always be grateful for her wisdom.
She will surely be missed, but never forgotten, and live forever in our hearts.
Love,
Debbie
