I've lost my everything. It's like I lost my mom over again. I'm torn. Joan as I call her Jo-Jo was my teacher. I have learned so much from her. She was a very strong woman and loved outdoors. She was my rock, my friend, it's my pleasure working with her and be there till the end. - Posted by: Ann Marie Williams (Caregive) on: Jan 22, 2015
