Joanne I sit here thinking of our trip to the whir mountains and how you brought every one hats to wear as we walked the Flumes. You leave is all with aching hearts. You will be missed by many. Now you can walk around heaven all day with your dearly missed husband

Rest in peae, Joanie .Lopve yo uSully
So very sorry to hear of Joanie's passing. We were FIRST grade sweethearts back in 1947, and stayed friends 'till the end. But the happy ending is that now she will rest in eternity with Stan and her Mom &Dad. Joanie, Rest in Peace.
I will always feel so fortunate to have known her, played tennis with her, and to have enjoyed wonderful, fun filled vacations with her. Tears of sadness for the end of a life well lived, a life of kindness and understanding for others. I have missed her and will miss her more now.
Joanie; I will miss your generous spirit, your laughter and generosity to all. You always made me smile! You leave a whole in my heart. Rest in peace my friend.
