Carolene, Steve, Tom and Jill, I was shocked to learn of JoAnn's death. Our lives were so enlightened and enlivened by her presence. I did not know she was ill, which saddens me. When I moved onto Belle Center Road she was the neighbor I so needed. I being a city girl and finding myself on 5 acres with small children. Oh, JoAnn, I don't think I ever, ever let you know what your smile and always positive, helpful neighboring did for me and my family. Each of you added to her life in ways you can only imagine, she loves you so. Thank you God for lending your daughter JoAnn to us, thank You for taking her into your welcoming arms to live in joy and health for eternity.
