Where did the years go.  It doesn't seem that long ago when I met Joan .
Her husband Bob Allen and my husband Bob Bratschun had been in the
Air Force together in Melbourne, Florida .  When we vacationed in Florida
we would always stop for a nice visit with them  Our children were just
youngsters. We are from Illinois.  When we met for the first time I felt such
a welcome and kindness in both Joan and Bob Allen   Many Christmas cards
have been sent over the years and I will miss those messages and Greetings
that were always enclosed with cards.  We all learn something from one another in life....Joan was a loving and gentle person and the world has
lost one more good soul.  But our loving and caring God knows the goodness
he had created in Joan.  God only "Loaned"  Joan to all of us here on Earth
to appreciate.  He wanted her back home with him.  I'm so happy to have
known Joan...even for a little while it seems.  Blessings to all of her Family
who are Greiving.  She will be missed. Sincerely, Her Friend, Betty (Bob) Bratschun = 524 So. Villa Ave., Villa Park, Illinois 60181
