I'm SO saddened to learn of Joan's passing. I often said I had to call her and get together. I feel so bad that my busy life got in the way. We worked together many years at Children's Hospital. I'm also saddened that I won't be able to attend her service as I'll be out of town. Kathy and Paul, please know you're in my prayers. Hugs and peace during this difficult time.
