Joanne impressed me as a positive, fun-loving woman who had raised a wonderful son, Rory, now my son-in-law. I had the pleasure of meeting Joanne the night prior to Rory and Sarah's wedding. It is wonderful that she was able to meet her grandchildren, Savannah and Declan. We spoke of the blessed anticipation of grandchildren. She joked about how she was going to spoil them. I am certain her loving presence will always surround those she left behind.
