So many special family & friends to mention, but much love to all.
JoAnne was a caring & compassionate woman to everyone she met. Always having a smile on her face, especially when the house was full of people. "The more the merrier" she always said. JoAnne was "momma Jo" to many & loved each as her own. Our hearts are broken, but we know she is in heaven with no more suffering or pain.
A special thank you to Sara Mullins, Dr. Bertotti & the staff of JCMC & Amedysis for their loving care. Thank you Terri Owens & Mary Fagan for your kindness & continued friendship. Many Thanks and Love from our family to yours.
