John Hahn lit a candle

“One night in the early 1980's Jill & myself along with Jeff, Joanie and their respective dates drove up to Framingham to see Rodney Dangerfield at the Chateau de Ville. Right after he came on stage, Rodney asked "How many here from Framingham?" and a number of hands went up. Rodney shook his head as he replied "You city slickers!", and from that point on it was non-stop laughter the rest of the evening. This is how I remember Joanie -- and it really doesn't seem that long ago .... John Hahn”

Jayne Pratt wrote a sympathy message

“To all Joan’s family: This is Jayne, Joan’s cousin from Florida: I have very fond memories of birthday parties and holidays when our families would spend them together when we all lived in Massachusetts as children. Joan was always such a sweet spirit, and a welcome participant to those events. Although I know you must miss her terribly. May you find comfort that she is reunited with her sister and her parents, And is healthy and happy in heaven. Sincerely, Jayne Ginkus Pratt”
