What a beautiful lady. Ms Joann always was a lady. She would be on the back porch when i would come over with Sam. She would scold me for doing crazy things with her boys. I was pregnant at the time. She would say my son Daniel was going to be born racing in a camaro. I told her that her boys were at my wedding and knowi g sam one of them would probably be there when he was born. Donnie Lynn was and Mark wasnt far behind. Prayers for you all. Spencer i just cant imagine the saddness. You know where to find me.
Attended church with Jo-Ann at Keystone FWB church for several years and she was a very special lady. She always was friendly and had a smile for you. She was generous and liked to give gifts. I'll always remember her car with the flags on it. She will always be missed. We will see her again in Heaven.
We will Always Always Miss you My Wonderful Sister.We love you and Miss you with all of our Hearts.We had alot of good times spending time together visiting on the porch.We love you and miss you and will forever. Love Nancy & Gordon Mckinney
