I can't believe that you have been gone from this life for 4 years. I still miss you every day. Your passing has left a huge hole in my life.

Joan, thank you for the kind of friendship that makes you feel like you are part of the family. I will never forgot walking into Lisa's store years ago. My life had taken a few crazy turns. You sat me down, in that inimitable Joan style, "You said, make this right, not for anybody else, but yourself". She further explained that each person has to be happy on their own, and assured me that getting involved in a hobby beyond work was the answer. She reminded me in those times, to clean my house. We spent hours debating, discussing, laughing, gossiping, discussing writing books, and having amazing girl talks. When I think of you, I think of that always energy

Joan, there is no doubt that you earned your wings here and I am so grateful to have shared our time together and inspiration you gave me! You touched a lot of folks and forever in our hearts! Hope your new journey brings you eternal peace & joy you so deserve! xx Gina
