I didn’t see Joan that often but I found her to be intelligent and warm-hearted.
She exuded the spirit of goodness. My deepest sympathy to Herb and the family.

Dear Lori, Jodi and Herb —

I am so very sorry for your loss. Joan was such a beautiful woman whom I loved talking to . . . she always had a smile on her face. I remember at an 80s party where she had thrown together huge shoulders on her dress – ala Dynasty – from some old curtains she had lying around the house. It makes me smile to remember this – how creative and crafty she was. And always a good sport! She will be dearly missed . . .

Herb, our hearts go out to you, Lori and Jodi and all your family. Joan was a rare person who never lost her sense of joy. Even after 51 years of marriage, she never looked at Herb without that special sparkle in her eyes. She will be sadly missed by all who knew her. Sincere condolences for your loss from Mary and Fred.
