    Joan I remember you as a girl and the uncountable times I spent at your home. I felt a part of your family and each and every one of you Klein children made for my growing up memories. May you rest in peace and your spirit soar.

    Joan was the funniest, smartest, wittiest, and most compassionate person I have ever know, She was my best friend, She was an awesome mother, sister, and a support system to everyone she knew.Her love for life was contagious! Her spirit and determination has been an inspiration to me, my family, and anyone who met her. Rest in peace, Joan. I love you and will miss you more than you could ever imagine.

    I was very sorry to learn recently about Joan’s passing. From when I first met Joan I admired her poise, humor, and charisma! When I was a kid she reminded me of Jodie Foster! 🙂 I was grateful to spend some time with her more recently as well, and I hope the Kleins and her children have found peace and comfort.
