Cate, Patrick, Pegi and Kelley, and all Joan’s beloved family, sister Lyne and Guy, grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces and nephews, you were her greatest joy and I’m so sorry she has now left your presence. She was my dearest friend for so many, many years. She remains in my heart (and on my bed with the afghan she made me, as she made for all of you!) We will always have her spirit with us. May we now pray for each other as she always prayed for us. Love you all. JoAnne

A beautiful soul she showed just in her presence. She taught me about Ecclesiology and the understanding of the early church. I’ll never forget that.
She will be missed and is now rejoicing with our Lord. My prayers are with you all ????
