My fondest memories of cousin Joan are the times she spent with my grandmother and me in NJ. They would stay up all night and talk about the "good old days" and I could hear them laughing. They also loved to talk on the phone for hours on end with each other. Cousin Joan was a sweet and loving lady and will be greatly missed...Love, Julie
