I’m so thankful that memories are forever! I’ve known Joan for 40+ years, as John married my sister. The last couple of years, Joan was such a bright light, in the hardest time of my life, due to a medical diagnosis. She sent notes, newspaper clippings, jokes and cards! All loving, thoughtful and funny! You made a difference for me…thank you. Until we meet again💜

Guestbook
John, Joal, Julie, and Jennifer. I’m so sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. She was like a 2nd mother to me the years John and I were roommates in St. Cloud. She was always happy, with never a cross word or negative thought. I felt loved by her and am saddened she is no longer with us.
Rest in Peace ‘Mrs. Bergy’.
