I just heard of JoAnn's passing from a friend in Colorado Springs. I worked with your mom many years ago. Thoughts and prayers to the family.

Hello, I just found news of Joann in the Gazette. I am so sad. We worked together at Nelson, Coulson & Assoc. Actually, shared a job at the beginning. We used to walk and have lunch before I moved to Jersey (over 25 yrs ago)and continued when I visited with her on my visits back home, taking care of my mom. Joann wrote beautiful cards and letters. I will miss our talks about our families. I called her in late Nov/Dec upon our move back to COS, but Andy had just arrived for a visit. Her family meant everything to Joann. Blessings to all. A friend, who loved Joann, Susan Giebel
