September 15 – Obituary: Joanne Frances Boxwell

Little Brother – Joanne was a sweet lady and I’m so sorry that you’ve lost someone you loved so much and loved you back. I wish I had the right words to say – have faith that death is not the end, but merely a passing – like going through a door to somewhere new and having those you loved patiently waiting just on the other side. Know that I love you, that I care, and I’m here for you.
