I’m seated at my computer letting my mind take me back to "Joanie" Foster and Cranbrook days in the 60’s and early 70’s. What a splendid childhood we had and what a special friend Joan was to me. I remember so many small things about Joan that made her both smart and kind. Of course I also recall silly little things like her pride in demonstrating how to rake the new shag carpet and our willingness to pay money to ride the rope swing that our brothers built in the back yard - what a wonderful childhood!
Joan, you will always be in my heart as one of my earliest and best friends.
Love, Claire (Stephen) Vincent
