  3. where do I start? My family has known Joan all our lives. My nephew Tim remembers her from the Lunch Lady at Seigel. She would sneak him extra pizza at lunch. Being bestfriends with Vicki and hanging with Kathy Tusky I knew Joan pretty well especially in the last 3 years. when I found out she had passed, I looked up at the sky and said “OK boys here come your FEMALE singer. She is up there with the gang singing her heart out. Joan, I will miss ya but I believe you are in no more pain. Tell Betty and Bob Hi for me.

  15. My beautiful sister Joni….we always had such fun together, but we also fought when we were kids.
    I love my sister very much. I talked to her just two weeks ago, sadly, she didn’t sound like her old self.
    We had fun reminiscing; we talked about our old age, which wasn’t as much fun. But I sure do love my little sister. I didn’t get to see her for the past several years, because I live in Minnesota, and I’m a little old to be traveling. Joni will always remain my fun-loving beautiful little sister. I miss her, and will, until I see her in heaven. I’m sure she’s one beautiful angel in heaven. Keep them laughing little Joni, and sing like nobody’s business with the angels. much love and condolences to the entire family

  17. My dearest Joanie, I just learned of your passing from the Board of Education memoriam. What a sad day! We had so much fun working together at Siegel School. I used to give you a ride home everyday after work and we would sing Tony Bennett what fun we had! I am so sorry I didn’t keep in touch, but I retired and moved To Florida and lost contact with you. I know you are up there playing bingo and singing like crazy, Until we meet again my sweet Joanie! Prayers to you and your family.
