I send my condolences and love to you all in your time of grief! She will be greatly missed by many! We love you Joan! See you again, may you fly high with the angels!
I was fortunate enough to care for Joan for a few months. She lit up every room she stepped in to. Myself and the staff at Hillcrest will truly miss her. Peace be with you and your family during this hard time.
What a great picture of you mom Steve. We did not get to know her but it sounds like she was a wonderful mom. We are sorry for your loss. No more suffering in Heaven!! Love you guys, Hank & Jan
