    Our sympathies to Joanne’s family upon her death. We were friends for many years and she was deeply devoted to her church. We have missed her since she went to Moravian Manor and always seemed happy to see us when we went there.

    My sincere sympathy to your family at this difficult time. Joanne was married to my cousin, Tom Zimmerman.

    She was always pleasant and had the gift of gab and could talk with anyone. She will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

    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.
