Everyone loved Aunt Joann. I never saw her without a smile on her face; never heard her complain; she laughed always and found the good in everyone and every situation. She touched the lives of everyone she knew and met. She will be missed by all those who loved her dearly including our family. Love, Donna and Tom Lieber
