Share Your Thoughts and Memories

"Although we know that after such a loss the acute state of mourning will subside, we also know we shall remain inconsolable and will never find a substitute.  No matter what may fill the gap, even if it be filled completely, it nevertheless remains something else.  And actually, this is how it should be.  It is the only way of perpetuating that love which we do not want to relinquish."  --Sigmund Freud in a letter to a man who lost his son.


If you would like to share your thoughts, memories, stories, or photos of Joann, Kristin, or Zachary, or wish to offer your condolences to Chris and the Rumsey and Piano families, please send an email to rjpiano at yahoo.com

We will post them to this site as soon as we can.

I had the pleasure of knowing Joann while I worked at Hyatt. And years later, as I left the industry, she is someone I never forgot. I found her to be a wonderful role model and always looked forward to working alongside her on national accounts. Joann was intelligent, creative and so very respected by those she worked with.To her family: My heart completely aches for your tremendous loss. My sincere thoughts and prayers to each of you during this incredibly difficult time.
