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 working with Joann when she worked at the Princeton Hyatt and then when she moved on to her National Role, I was one of her Clients. As everyone else has stated, she was one of the nicest and most genuine people that I have ever met. When we met for those account updates, we laughed a lot and had great times and good talks. I learned a lot about her family and the joy that you all brought to her life. My heart is heavy, but to her family know that she was a blessing to those that she came into contact with. I cannot claim to know what you are going through but my heart and prayers are with you all.
