Joanne struggled throughout most her life. When I met her at 9, we had many fun times playing games, walking to town on rainy summer days, swimming, and eventually years later as teens we wrote poetry together. She was very bright and already at a young age showed signs of mental illness. She was raised Jewish but became a devout Christian as an older teen and never gave up on her religion and bible studies. She was close with her mother during various times of her life and It breaks my heart to think about all her years she lost until a caring family member rescued her once again from the terrors of her illness and for over ten years she lived a decent life with friends and family  who connected with her and cared for her deeply, except her brother, who sadly took advantage of her situation and made life miserable for her.  Sadly, Joanne never knew a loving relationship with him and never will. Joanne asked for a Christian burial and obviously did not get what she expressed so often. There are plenty who were touched by her and will have memories of her more lucid and better times. She is now relieved of all her pain and constant worry about her future. She will be missed.
