I love you! You were like an auntie to me. Always showed me the most love and respect whenever you saw me. Thank you for being a positive, fun loving, caring person in my life. I will never forget you!
Truly was saddened to hear of Joanie’s passing. She was a fun person with whom to work and was good with the children. In our relationship, she was cheerful, smiling, and always ready to do what was asked of her. Her cheerful personality will be missed. Joanie was a good woman! Rest with God, Joanie.

To the Family of Joanie. I was sorry to hear about Joanie’s passing. I was one of her sister’s class mates (Cynthia) but I knew Joanie more especially after we graduated. She was one that always had a smile and was full of laughter! I just saw the notice but it was too late for the services. My thoughts and prayers are with your family and praying God comforts you during this difficult time of your loss. May her memories give you joy knowing Joanie touched a lot of lives!
