Janet Stringer wrote a sympathy message

“I loved Aunt JoAnn. She was spunky (like Stringers are), beautiful and delightful. I loved hearing about her competitive tennis matches and how she would compete against younger players and WIN! I loved her youthfulness, beautiful smile, and her adorable petite frame just like her classy sister, Grandmother Peggy. I would like to think she is playing a match in heaven now, youthful, strong, and smiling! She is with our beloved Lord now, happy and free! - Janet & Jimmy Stringer”
