I am sorry to hear about Joanie P.'s passing. She was a great help to me when I started working at AAOS with the AOA meeting. She always had a twinkle in her eye especially when she had a story to tell. I really enjoyed her tuna recipe! My thoughts and prayers are with her family; they certainly know what a special lady she was.

I so enjoyed working with Joan at AAOS. She was funny, sincere and very helpful. She and I always discussed Polish recipes and even shared a few. I was so sorry to hear of her passing. May God be with all of you during this difficult time.

Joan was a dear friend while we worked together. She was supportive and empathetic. I'm sorry to hear she has passed away. I mentioned to Stephanie recently that she should send my greetings to her Grandmother. My prayers are with your family during this sad time.
