I wish I had the opportunity to meet Joan. She is the grandmother of my wife Lisa. My wife and I started dating shortly after Joan's passing and it's one of those timing issues I wish was slightly different. She was a talented artist and did a truly amazing job raising seven children that appreciate family relationships and values.
