Joan was one of my 8 sisters. We had a closeness that was different from our other siblings. We were once married to brothers, whom we both had sons by. Our boys were as close as many brothers are, and I hope they still are. We have lived apart as distanve goes, but I enjoyed seeing and playing bingo with her when I visited from Montana. I talked to her a few weeks ago and went over some memories. She will be sadly missed by many.
Joann was a employee of mine at Chrysler, I could not have asked for a better employee. she will be sadly missed by all.
My grandma was a wonderful woman i will miss her dearly. I remember so many things about her.
