On behalf of the Charlie and Barbara Sweeny family, I send our sincerest condolences on the loss of your wonderful Joan. She was a unique soul, and Barbara was blessed to have begun a special friendship with Joan over 60 years ago when they shared a maternity room and excitedly awaited the births of each of their sons. I just shared with my father Charlie about Joan's passing, and the first thing he said was, "What a beautiful woman. A noble bearing." May joyful memories carry the burden of your sorrow.
