I’m so sad to hear about Mrs. Joann. She was sure a wonderful person and I loved her. I loved to hear her laugh and she did a lot. It was fun when the “Floyd ladies” would get together. She will so missed. I will be praying for all of you. I know it is so difficult, God will be with you to get you thru this.
I’m so sorry for your loss,prayers for you all Todd,Lynn and Kyle
Todd, I loved your Mom. She was such a friend to my Mom. Now they are both in heaven with our fathers. Sending my deepest condolences.
To the family of “Miss Joann” I was sorry and heart broken to learn of her passing. She was a good friend to me and the Hardee Group. I had a bad habit of calling her Doris and she would laugh, but I finally learned to call her Joann. She was a wonderful person, with many friends who will greatly miss her. To all the family I ask God’s blessings of peace. comfort, and assurance during this difficult time.
