I'd lost contact with Joanne in the last 5 years, and heard the news just this week that she had passed. She took a chance on hiring me, back in 1995, and gave me a shot at the best job I've ever had, that set the course for my career. I learned so much from her -- including to always wear bright colors. I'm forever grateful for her mentorship and will strive to make her proud and carry on her very best qualities.
She set us up to succeed. She loved us unconditionally. She did not manage, she empowered. She openly shared her wealth of knowledge. I owe to her my successes.
My sincere condolences to your family. May you find comfort found in the words of Isaiah 25:8
