We are so sorry for your loss. We'll miss having your mom in our neighborhood.
With deepest sympathy,

Dear kids,
I am so sorry for your loss. I know how dearly you cherished your mom and I know how deeply she cherished each of you. As long as you have known your mother I have known her as long and even longer. Of course, I have known her in a different way. I have known her from childhood to adulthood to old age through many shared memories. I cherished her friendship and will miss her in my life. Now, instead, I live with memories of her but whenever I interact with one of you I will experience her through you because you are the living embodiment of everything she ever taught you. She taught you GOOD!
Love, Barbara
I'm so sorry for your loss. Joan was a wonderful woman loved by all that knew her. I have many fond memories of her while working at Service Liquor. She will certainly be missed.
My sincere condolences,
Bob Copp
Kris, Karen, Mike, & Rob,
When we moved to the neighborhood, Joan knocked on our door to introduce herself and to welcome us to the neighborhood. She was a class act and raised 4 wonderful people. I will forever remember the fun times we had, especially during summers when we could get together for a glass of wine and stories. Hold tight to your memories.
With deepest sympathy and love,
Jan & Jim (Kenyon)
Mike, Rob, Kris and Karen,
Sorry for your loss.
It has been a long time and you are all still in my thoughts
Your Mom was a great lady.
Sincerely, Bob Ferris.
Kris, Karen, Mike, and Rob, Diane and Pete - I am at a loss for words to express the depth of my sorrow over Joan's passing. I absolutely loved her, and I grieve with you. My condolences to all of you.
Joan was one of the strongest women I ever met. I actually felt a little intimidated by her when I first met her almost 20 years ago. Over time, I saw the soft, loving mom and sister she was. I always admired her, and I grew to love the heck out of her.
Joan could tell a story. She made me laugh so many times ... I'm grateful for the many fond memories i have of her.
My mom hasn't known who I am for 16 months. For even longer, she has been unable to converse. There were many times I'd visit Kris and Joan and talk would turn to my job or my mom, whatever was troubling me, and I'd pour it out or vent, or both. Joan and Kris were both wonderful listeners, both would offer words of comfort and advice when I finally shut up.
Kris, you know you are my best friend ever - there is no one on the planet that I love more than you. And your mom became my surrogate mom, which was a treasure second only to our friendship.
Mike, Rob, Kris, Karen, and Diane and Pete, you guys are a phenomenal family, and it's wonderful to know all of you. Hang tight. Love, support, and cherish each other. I think Joan would really love that.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

So sorry to hear of your loss. She was such a wonderful neighbor to have next door.I was just thinking about her today and how we had to pay a visit. I wish you comfort in your happy memories together. She had such a gift of lifting you up and always made time for a visit, a laugh and a glass of wine.
Love, Cathy Simone and children, Jaimee, Patrick and esp. Tim
