With my thoughts & prayers to Robbie & family.
I have many fond memories of working with Joan at Eaton’s. I remember how excited she was to receive her 25th anniversay diamond ring from John Craig Eaton but even more important to her was John Craig visiting Marge Burtis in hospital to present Marge with her ring. Joan always looked after others. Joan’s family was her priority and she took such pride in her grandchildren.
She was an amazing lady and I feel very fortunate to have known her.
With my sincere sympathy to all of you
I worked with Joan at Eatons back in the late 60’s and early 70’s. She was a delight to work with and such fun. My sincere sympathies to your family.
I would like to express my deepest sympathy regarding your loss. I can truly understand how it feels to loose a loved one in death. These must undoubtedly be some very hard times for your family. In such times, it is very difficult to find comfort, considering the harsh world that we live in. In my case, and in the case of many, we can always find comfort in God’s Word the Bible. For example we find God’s promise to all mourning ones in Isaiah 61:2,3. I hope this brings comfort to you and your family.
