Joan was a dear friend, and a great example of a wonderful Catholic woman. She was a great inspiration to all. Our deepest sympathies go out to her family and friends. We have no doubt that she occupies a very special place in heaven. She was certainly an angel on earth. Thank you, Joan for your friendship and support during a very tough time in our lives.
