“Joan was a good neighbor. We’ve lived a few doors down from her for almost 25 years. When my daughters were little, she used to bring them dresses she would find at thrift stores or yard sales. Always friendly - and always thinking of other people. The neighborhood won’t be the same without her. - Julie, Steve, Autumn and Noel Bunch”
