I will always remember the love and kindness Auntie Joan showed me all my life and the warm way she welcomed my wife and children into our family. Her smile and laughter always lit up a room and will carry on in our hearts. She was always doing little things that let you know she was thinking of you and that she cared and I will hold those memories of her close to me forever. She was a wonderful godmother and I will miss her terribly. God Bless you Auntie Joan.

It was my joy to meet and know Auntie Joan and she will be missed very very much. She always had a kind word, warm inviting hug or a very special card with just the right words, when you least expected it, sending her love and letting us know we were in her thoughts. What a wonderful woman who will be deeply missed by all she knew and touched. May she now be pain free and at rest.

You are all in our thoughts and prayers. If you need anything, please know we are here for all of you.

With all of our love and support,
Scott, Sandra, Jack and Griffin Jakubowski
