Joan was such a nice person. I first met her when she worked the poles in Franklin Furnace, we always enjoyed talking and would run into each other at Krogers occasionally. I am so sorry for the loss. Prayers to all her family.

Joan was Mom’s best friend in high school and afterwards for a while until life separated them. Mom (Eloise Ash Porter) talked about Joan all the time and I remember visiting when I was young. I have some pics of them. Prayers for Joan’s family.
