Joan was such a beloved neighbor. I always looked forward to seeing Joan to stop to chat. This would be often when she had her sweet greyhounds, Candy and Ana. I think we spoke mostly every day because Joan was such a great mom to them and was out with them several times a day running errands, walking through town and strolling through the neighborhood. Her dogs were as sweet as she was. Joan was also very affectionate with our dogs and she loved making a fuss over them. Once they spotted her they would start running to see her. They would go crazy to see her. In fact, many times they would either pause at her house or want to run up her steps as we were walking by. We would often bring her paper up to her mail box and if I was with Simi, the Ridgeback, Simi would sit on her porch nearly every time refusing to leave. Joan was such a kind, generous person with a big heart. I'll remember that the most about her. She was always happy to see us and in good spirits. She will be greatly missed and always remembered.
