Hi there,

I am deeply sorry to hear about your loss. I must admit I barely know Jo but I wanted to share my story as I just now found out about her from looking her up on Facebook.

Joanna and I were penpals in the late 90s, I found her through a music magazine and we bonded over our love for Canadian bands and the emerging scene.  At some point we lost touch and then a year or two ago she searched for me on Facebook because she found our old letters to one another.  I was so touched. Not only that she kept them,  but went to the trouble of looking for me to share that she found them and remembered me. 

We caught up a bit on each others lives and she went on to tell me I was gushing about a boy and my huge crush on him in several of those letters. We laughed together about it on Facebook chat, as if no time had passed and we were the best of friends. I never once met her in person but hoped to.  She always struck me as a cool girl and someone I would definitely have as a friend in real life. I still have that chat saved.

 I live in Niagara Falls and when she mentioned she was a craft beer expert, she said if she ever travelled here she would look me up.  I started a food and drink blog last year and for the past month Ive been thinking about her and reaching out to ask her if she would share her expertise on beer with me as its a booming industry here at the moment.  And that brought me to looking her up this afternoon, and seeing In Memoriam on her page.

Once again, I really dont know her but in these small touchpoints when my life intersected with hers, I really saw what a genuine and wonderful person she was and just wanted to share. To make an impact like that on someone she barely knew...I can only imagine how incredibly missed she must be today. Lots of love to all of you, Im so sorry.



My heart is broken.  
You were always there for me when I needed you most. 
I learned so much from you. You taught me to be myself and to be unapologetic about it. 
You will always have a special place for you in my heart. 

Love you, Jo.  

I was deeply saddened to hear of Joanna's passing.  I had worked with her at both Canadian Direct and Wawanesa and have been thinking of her strength, intelligence, and laughter.  I know how often and lovingly she spoke of her mom, loved her dad beyond words, cherished Sean and their marriage, and of course, was devoted and delighted often by Lucky, Harwold, and Ringo before he passed.  
She loved her time spent travelling and entertaining others with funny stories, and was so kind and compassionate with her volunteering with cats, her love of friends and family, and taking care of the kids around her
I was shocked to hear of her illness and equally devastated to hear of how quick her passing was.
She will be missed and I am so sorry for your loss
