good timesSteve, Mike and Dave; I. Am so sorry to hear of Joann’s passing. She is at peace now. All of y’all are in my thoughts and prayers.
I love my Granny and miss her so very much. Praise God I will see her on the other side. She taught me so many important things about family. So many great memories and lessons to pass down. She also gave me a wonderful Father. I am so glad to call Steve my Dad. He treated my Granny like Queen through it all. We will never forget and can’t wait to see her again. She was so beautiful as always.
Joann was a special lady and will be greatly missed. Remembering all in thoughts and prayers.
I am thinking of you and praying for your family.
Sending up thoughts and prayers for your family.
I went to HS with Joann and had not seen her since graduation, until September 2010 when she came to a reunion at CHS. She was the same same sweet person I remembered from HS. My heart goes out to your family and I will remember you in my prayers. Jerrie Bonner
