Today I will be celebrating her life with her daughter.
Here are some of Joan's favorite things:
- Coke in the can with a foam cozy and a bendy straw
- 60's and 70's music and singing along to every song
- Jimmy Buffet
- Baconburger, medium rare - no condiments
- Scrapbooking with friends and M&M's
- Johnny Depp/Captain Jack Sparrow
- Movies with happy endings and maybe a tear or two
- Cruises with family
- Backpack purses
- Ziplock bags for everything
- A good read
- Reusing junk mail envelopes for lists
- Dogwood blossoms
- Bright fun colors especially in her clothes
- Fun funky jewelry
- Reisling wines
- Disney World
- Rosa Regale champagne
- Reading several newspapers daily
- Long lunches with ME
- Being a grandmother to her grandsons
- Phone calls from Barbara
That is just a sampling of the many things that Joan loved. She loved people and life - to the fullest. And they loved her right back.
