Aunt Joann came to our house when my brother bobby died. She cooked ,cleaned and helped with funeral arrangements. She helped keep us calm and was a beacon of hope. She cooked a cake with an apron on and things felt normal. When she left I cried .God bless

I remember visiting my aunt Johan at her home about fifteen years ago. Although it has been such a long time I still remembered that I had a good time visiting her and I remember that she had a heart of gold. It is disappointing that I did not get to see her more often but I am sure that she is in a better place now.

Dear Aunt Joan, I am grateful for all the fun times we had together. Those memories will always be treasured.

You will always have a special place in my heart. Next time I go to Melrose or Rockport I will definitely be thinking of you.

I pray for your eternal happiness.

Love Kathy and family

Joan,

I miss and love you very much. I miss talking to you on the phone. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

Aunt Joan,

I love you and miss you. I have fond memories of the times we got to spend together. I wish we could have had more time to make more memories. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. May you rest in peace.
