Love you Aunt Joan!!!!
So sorry for your loss. She was a great lady and so much fun to be around. RIP.
I don’t even know where to begin aunt Joan played a very big part in my life. When I was little I memorized her phone number and when I left home to find my mom that was the only number I had known that number led me to my mother down the road let us all to become life changing moment she used to make me and mother Laugh so hard all the time with those two got together it was hilarious. She always had the perfect One liner come back she could hold the street face because if she turned her back, she always had a little shit grin on it and would mumble something just crack me up her mother used to go on and on and on it was such a joy pleasure to be around both of them together to spend those years together in the same neighborhood, we lived over there by Butler Hill and I didn’t have a car when I first came here I used to walk to her house just for a quick visit just to be around her. She would lift me up so quickly , there is no way to be a little down and press around her. She was a joy a pleasure she was something to look forward to. I always look forward to seeing you. I miss her so much. She was always looking after my mama all the way up to the end , even if it was just a phone call well you’re with your sister and your son and your brothers and your mama and daddy. You may be Tiny but you sure have some Bigfoot prints to fill to measure up to you. I will miss you dearly You will always be in my heart love you, your niece Vickie say hi to mom for me
