My Dear Friend,

I am very sorry to hear of the loss of your Mother. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God called her home and one day you shall be with her again. I look forward to the day he welcomes me home and see my own beloved Mother again. May God send his comforter to be with you and your family now and always.

Joan supported my sister and me as I battled cancer. She gave me advice and provided me with references and materials that aided my time with chemo. She had a truly lovely and kind heart.

This is truly one person I admire. Joan and my mother were fighting Cancer at the same time, unfortunetly I lost my mother but she kept on fighting. We became close . I knew her well from Irving Park lanes in Chicago where she took charge of all the seniors that bowled. She is one that I will never forget. Chris Mitchell

Michael and Ed, and all of your brothers,
My heart breaks for all of you. Your mother and life partner, has been the gorilla glue that has held you all together all of these years. She would be so very proud of all of you right now in how you have come together to finalize her final days here. Gods peace to all of you.
