My deepest condolences to all family and friends. JoAnne was one of my best friends for almost 50 years. We shared coffee and our hopes and dreams and raised our children. She taught me so much about being a good mother as I watched her with her family. She is so missed. Loved her.
Joanne always made sure everyone was well taken care of at the Christmas parties. She was a wonderful mother, grandmother , great grandmother and aunt. She was loved by so many. Her spirit will live on and memories will be cherished.
I am so sorry for you loss. Thinking of your family during these difficult times.
We are so sorry for your loss. I hope that the beautiful memories you have of her will help you ease the pain. She was a wonderful woman, mother, grandmother and wife. We are thinking of you at this sad time. With Sympathy, The Gioia and Fernandez family
This is Dave of the Jo-Dave connection. And I thank all of you for your kind words and thoughts and your welcomed prayers. Sometimes God allows you to get a small hint of what heaven is like. That is what JoAnne and I had and will have again.
I am so sorry to hear of your family’s loss. It is very hard to accept and deal with a loss of a parent. My heart goes out to all of you. I will keep Mark and his family in my thoughts and prayers. My sincere condolences.
Wonderful and beautiful lady .great friend to my sister Linda. Truly will be missed
My love and prayers to all of you…Mrs Callahan always made me feel welcomed from the time I first met her. Whenever I would attend a gathering with the family she always came over the minute I arrived to say hello. She always would make me laugh within minutes of saying hello by sharing a lighthearted story or a funny comment. And in turn all of you Callahans are just like her. You are all the most welcoming loving family I know….please accept my condolences. Love you all.
