Offer a tribute

January 9, 2025

Mary Margaret Quadlander lit a candle

“I met Joanie through Grace Jones in Salado. Although her magnificent beauty was my first impression, her true glow was her thankful personality, so ready to remind us that her blessed life was not solely of her own doing but from the love and support of so many surrounding her. And she could make fun of herself, a great gift. When I interviewed her for "Grace Jones of Salado," she asked if I thought her hair was too big. I replied, "It is perfect...don't change one single hair!"”
