Message from Betty:
Joanne was a gifted, genuine and loyal friend who became family in our early adult years while, along with Penny, we were roommates. She loved life and took note of the most intricate details, which made every one of her stories most interesting. We would never have found Jet Lag Café or L’As de Falafel in Paris without her wonderful directions. We had wished that one day Rob, Jo, Henry and myself could meet there to spend an afternoon people-watching. She was a faithful sister and we enjoyed her visits back to Edmonton when we could spend time together going on my French Bible studies or finding a new restaurant with something delicious to eat. Oh, we still have so much to experience in the New World!

My favourite memories of Joanne include the Saturday’s we would spend in service with the 5 of us (when our boys were younger), having a great lunch at a beautiful restaurant in a beautiful place (on the water in White Rock), humming our favourite TV theme song as we left the book study at Searle’s, sharing a glass of wine on their back patio. Joanne will always be remembered for her energy, her kindness, her beautiful smile and care for others. We will miss you Joanne – see you in Paradise!

Joanne always had a warm smile and was a jewel in the congregation.

Joanne was a lovely, interesting, funny, cheerful and loyal friend. She stayed with me at the hospital when I had a surgery and thought that I might have cancer. I loved how enthusiastic she was when she told her long stories. Sometimes I wondered but was touched at how she made it through life still being a little naive. It was very sweet. I’m going to try and pretend that she is just away on some fun vacation because I can’t imagine life without her. I’ll be waiting for her in the paradise with a glass of wine, some melted oka cheese on a sourdough baguette and a giant hug.
