Aunt Joanne was like a friend to me she always tried to look at the good side of people. She was easy to talk to and had a child like innocence to her. She called me a lot she thought I was a doctor lol. She was very scared when she had symptoms. She said it helped her talking to me. I hope that was true. My heart breaks I’ll never see her again but I know she’s at peace. No more worries no more anxiety. Fly high aunt Joanne. I’ll miss you
Sorry for your loss. Love Courtney
Growing up, Mrs T. was everything from a second mom to me, my ‘in/hook up’ at the attendance office in HS (always being late), a chef the countless times I ate dinner over, the comic relief when Charlie & I did endless dumb stuff and a great source of advice when needed.
A fantastic woman and will be forever missed. *Prayers guys… I’m sorry for your loss.
Joanne was a dear friend of my deceased wife,Diane,I’m sorry to hear of her loss. My condolences to Charlie and herfamily.
Charlie and Family: I am deeply sorry to learn about the loss of your dear Wife, Mom and Grandmother. Joann was our Durand Eastman Secretary as long as I can remember and always with a smile & that infectious laugh when you walked into the office. She was so proud of her children and grandchildren and cherished the times she had with Charlie going out to dinner and having holidays and friends over. We will all miss her sense of humor, her willingness to help everyone who came into the office and for the friendship she shared with all of us who knew her for so many years. Thoughts and Prayers are with Joann’s Family.
Dear, dear Joann. I can’t believe you’re gone. I will truly miss you, “Club” Sister. I’ve known you well beyond 50 years. We will never be the same without you. You were a beautiful soul. Love you lots. Rest in peace dear Joann. . Noreen Andersson 💖🙏 (General Dynamics Club)
My heartfelt condolences for your unexpected loss , may god watch over you all during this difficult time
Aunt Joann was special. She had a great sense of humor, never took life too seriously, always asked how I was doing and always had sound advice especially during difficult times. She also had a great talent for Calligraphy. I can hear her voice right now laughing and joking with the family telling funny stories about her and Uncle Charlie in our garage around the table. Can’t believe she’s gone. She will be missed. Fly high Aunt Joann. We all will miss you.
