We know that JoAnn is happy to be home with the Lord. What a blessing she and Jack both were to us. Where ever they were, their light shined bright for Jesus. Our love and prayers go out to her family who is left here on earth. May they remember all the love, laughter and prayers that we know JoAnn and Jack shared for each family and friends. We will miss them deeply, but we were certainly blessed to know them for 25 years. Thank you Lord for allowing our paths to cross and we know that one day we will see them again. All our love & prayers, Rick, Charlene & Chris Evans

Barbara:
I am so sorry about your sister. I know what it is to lose a sister and, thank heaven, God left me another one. If there is anything Pete or I can do for you, please let us know. But know that you are in our prayers.

Jeff and Joey, so sorry about Aunt Joanne passing. She was a wonderful person and aunt. I remember her making me a stuffed animal horse which I named Jack when I was a little girl. And Dad and Aunt Barbara, I am thinking of you both; you lost a wonderful sister. It's so nice to remember all the good times we had with Aunt Joanne. Aunt Joanne, say hi to Uncle Jack for me. Love you, Christy Faye Adkins Schaner
