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.

To All of those who love Joann,

My life has been blessed having Joann a part of it. Over the past ten years working with Joann was always a pleasure and beyond that. Joann and I shared our lives' true pleasures - our families. One memory stands out when Joann and I were driving to an appointment with traffic at a standstill somewhere between New York and New Jersey. Our conversation started with my son's upcoming wedding and journeyed to our wishes for the future. I will always cherish those memories. When you have someone touch your life as Joann did it hurts to her of her passing and also so blessed to have had her in my life.

To all of you remaining my prayers are with you that the pain eases. God Bless you,

Janice Baldridge (Bastrop, TX)
