Before I retired I enjoyed being part of your Mum's care team at Calvary She was so cheerful and accepting of the ills that come with old age Love to her wonderful family
I miss Joanne especially when singing with her while doing her cares, she taught me the song "You are my Sunshine". Indeed, Joanne is my Sunshine.
A beautiful woman with a very kind heart. Remembered with great fondness & aroha Arohanui Riki & Lorraine Dallas
Am so sorry to hear that you have lost your dear Mum and grandmother. I'm currently on holiday overseas but am thinking of you all. Jo was a delight and I enjoyed our chats, especially in her early days at Calvary. Take care, love Louise. Xx
