Joan was a woman of courage and strength. I know how much she loved her family and friends. She was always ready to lend an ear or give advice if needed. I will cherish all the times we played games, crafted or hunted for treasures at antique stores. Rest in peace my friend.

Joan was truly a fierce warrior in her fight against cancer. Her strong faith and unyielding determination to be with her family, gave her courage that never wavered. She was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. Joan was also loyal friend. I was blessed to have known her. Rest in peace, dear friend. There was rejoicing in Heaven when you went through the gates. God bless you. May Angels walk with your family today and always. Karen
