We were saddened to hear of Joanne’s passing. She, indeed, was an outgoing personality. We all worked together in the church office at Lancaster Moravian. Joanne always had a smile for anyone she met. She was willing to give of herself and adored her family. I would think of her every 25th of the month because we would tease each other about getting closer to Christmas. Blessings and peace to you, Joanne.
