MAY YOU REST IN PEACE DEAR JOANN

December 2, 2017

Joann was well know at the City of Yuma, with her big smile and friendly personality. She was a hard worker and enjoyed her job. Your family should be proud, she was a great person. I am so glad I had the opportunity to know her and work with her for several years.

God blessed our family with the gift of having Joann in our lives , we met at St Francis when all our children were small and we never knew what God had in store for us, our children met, fell in love and got married and Joann and I were so happy that now we were in-laws never out-laws we always laughed about that. And soon we wanted to outdo each other abourt our Beautiful Grandchildren Caitlan and William. Joann was my wonderful friend and a wonderful mother-in-law to my daughter Laurie and she knew that Bill became my son too. The thing we always said to each other is that both of us did good we both knew what that meant. I will always love you Joann. Love you Chicky and Martha

Readhead families, may your happy memories get you through this very sad time. I am so glad I got to know and work with Joann at the City. She was a very thoughtful and kind person. Even after her retirement she would ALWAYS send me a Christmas card EVERY year. I know she also loved to work in her yard and sure enough when I would drive by her house, that's where she was. I have missed her very much. God Bless you all.
