To the Family of Joanna: On behalf of the Little Sisters of Jesus and Mary and the Village of Hope, I send our deep sympathy and our prayers. Joanna served as Nurse Practitioner at the Village of Hope. She shared her caring welcome and delightful smile with the many patients she so joyfully served. Our staff delighted in her joy and fun. We are so grateful for the many lives she touched while serving in Salisbury. I know she has left a beautiful legacy in her family and her ministry. We would so like to be there to pray with you, however, we have a funeral of a long-term volunteer that very day and time. Please know of our remembrance in heart and prayer. In His healing love, Sr. Marilyn Bouchard, the Little Sisters, and all at the Village of Hope.
I've known Joanna for 33 + years through her friendship with Lona. Lona and I have been friends since we were 5 years. I met Joanna when she and Lona were in nursing school. Through the years, my family and I have had a great time when we'd see Joanna. Last Wednesday night my daughters, my mom and myself were at Sharptown Carnival and talked with Joanna and her niece that evening.She was so proud of Brielle and told me about the fun they were having while her niece was visiting. Joanna always had a beautiful smile, a joyous laugh and love for God, animals, kids and her friends and family! She is in Heaven smiling and singing with our Heavenly Father!

Last night I received terrible news. My late brother's widow died unexpectedly in her sleep yesterday. Joanna Moore was more than just a sister-in-law to me. She was the sister I never had. We were 4 months apart in age and we hit it off from the get go. My late mother loved her as if she were her own. I wish my father had lived long enough to know her for he would have loved her in the same way. Our relationship didn't end with my brother's death in 2004. Joanna was lucky enough to find a wonderful man that made the second part of her life whole again. She was a devoted aunt to my daughter over the last 19 years as well. Things work in mysterious ways. My daughter had a break before school started and flew up to Maryland to spend the week with Joanna and Burt. She came back Thursday and Joanna and I spoke for quite awhile on the phone. They had a wonderful time and Brielle will have that memory to cherish forever. Joanna was a nurse practitioner and helped so many people. When Burt called me last nite, I could not wrap my mind around it. I can only take solace in knowing that after the tragedy of my brother Paul's death, she was able to find happiness, love and a best friend with Burton Moore. My deepest sympathy goes out to Burt and Joanna's family. I have seen way too many losses over the past year. I loved Joanna very much. May she rest in peace.
Thank you Joanna for letting me into your life. You were there for Joyce, then you were there for us. You have, by the many statements on FB, let a lot of people into your life and they, are all blessed, because of your kindness, advise, and attitude. You have inspired several people to achieve more than they felt they could by their own admissions. You will be missed by several people, but none will miss you more than Joyce. Your years of friendship was never taken for granted, only treasured! I will miss the "baby baby, oooo baby baby" or several songs you would sing going down the road while we were in the back of the vehicle. Hug Eston for us! Love you and will miss you!
My heart goes out to Joanne's family. May all of the fond memories you share of Joanne keep her alive in your heart and soul forever and ever.
I knew Joanna many years ago with her first husband. She had a wonderful family. I met her with Burt and he is also a wonderful man. My heart goes out to you Burt. I will miss Joanna very much.
I was a broken woman with 2 children, Joanna took me under her wing and lifted me up. It is hard to be down with someone is dancing around you singing into a hair brush. I will miss my sister by choice and our calls and visits. Love you Joanna! Hug Eston for me.
