Joan had a smile that lit up the room…I liked her from the moment Karen introduced me to her…she and Mark were dating at that time, and she loved Karen! I know she is smiling down on her family!
I’ve been blessed to meet “Mom” a handful of times and each time I was truly blessed by this Amazing Earthly Spiritual Angel <3 God Bless all of you <3
Joan was a beautiful lady, with a warm welcoming smile. Her true joy was family. She was blessed with a loving family and a strong faith. God bless all of you!
