I cleaned Joanne´s house every month and it was more than a job for me. We would talk about birds and animals, as we both shared a love for them, and many other topics. When I had cancer 5 years ago, she called me to see how I was feeling and it meant so much to me.
Joanne was a beautiful person inside and out. She had the most beautiful smile that would light up her face and was always so thankful and appreciative. I cried when I heard that she passed but she fought for a long time and I´m glad she´s at peace and pain free. I miss her but was so blessed to have known her.
