    I’m so sorry Karen. I adored your mother! I loved when she came on the retreats. What a delightful woman, she will surely be missed. Gods blessings upon you and your family for comfort and hope for better days ahead.

    My deepest sympathy to the family. When I joined Jackson Park Lutheran church in 2008 Joanne was one of the first ladies to welcome me. She always made sure she would save a place for me when we had various events at the church. I will deeply miss her also

    Dear Joanne up above in heaven, I will miss you and your wonderful happy smile. You were my Sunday school teacher, and you babysat for my mom and took care of me when I was a little girl. Some 50+ years later, I enjoyed seeing you and your son at church. We would always discuss the organist songs that were played. And sometimes I would run into you at East troy. McDonald’s! Always know our love is down here on earth, as we remember all the angels up above. May God hold you close and gently in his arms. And may your family be blessed every day, with beautiful memories of you. OFwaih,hbtn. Tkc. Twbdoeaiiih. Gutdodb. Afuodawfod. Alunitbdufe. Ftitkatpatgf. Amen. Gail Johanson
