Jim and family I am very saddened to hear that Joanie has passed on. My condolences to you and your family in this difficult time.
Joan Weideman was my favorite aunt, favorite relative, pretty much my favorite anything!She set the tone for our family gatherings and for the loving embrace we have always felt from our Pittsburgh family. I’m going to cherish the many, many wonderful memories of this exceptional woman. I’m so glad she was a part of my life.
Sending love and support to Uncle Jim and the entire extended family (Pittsburgh and Albuquerque contingents) – on behalf of my parents, Martin & Barbara Weideman, who will be unable to make the journey to Pgh. to celebrate her life. Much love from niece Anne Weideman, and daughters, Molly & Julie Anderson
