Dear Barbara, I am very sorry to learn about Joanne’s passing. She and I were together in most classes during our four years at Lautalton Hall. She was such a kind and smart woman. I have many memories. God bless.  Mary Money

Rest in Peace Joanne. Prayers and condolences for your family. With love, a fellow Lauralton Hall Lady.

May God hold you in His loving arms now. Thank you Joanne for the life you lived and the love you gave. I was honored to serve with you as chaplain in Bridgeport Hospital and to be your neighbor. Many happy memories praying with you and Barb in your home. It was a devastating shock to hear of your passing. I know you are in your eternal home of peace. 🙏🏽❤️

Barbara,
I just learned of Joanne’s passing. We are so sorry to hear of this. I have many fond memories of her, and the two of you, from growing up next door. From the Christmas parties, to carpooling when I was working at Fairfield, and to you both for always buying something from all my school fundraisers. She was always kind. 

My deepest sympathies to you during this time. 
With sympathy,
Allison Iancale 

Barbara, 
I just learned of Joanne's passing. The two of you will always be the bright spot during my darkest hours after Rocco's passing. Your creative thoughtfulness towards Christopher is still talked about.
Sending love and strength.

Barbara,
I was so sad to learn of Joanne's passing.  Please accept my sincere condolences.  When I think of both you and Joanne, it brings to mind the many years of service that you shared with the Evergreen Network, especially through the annual holiday and school supply drives, organizing and matching upwards of 10 families with Fairfield U faculty and staff sponsors.  You and Joanne have brought joy and comfort to so many.  Thank you.  My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Joanne was a dedicated member of our Biology department.  She set up my labs and helped with everything I needed.  Our loss is heaven's gain.  Rest in peace dear friend.  You will be missed.

Joanne was a lovely soul and she will be sorely missed. May her memory be a blessing to her loving Barbara and the rest of her family.

My deepest condolences to Barb and the rest of the family.  I met Joanne  in 2007 when I first arrived at Fairfield. I remember how Joanne helped me feel welcome and find my way around.   She had incredible passion for her students and the Biology Department.  She gave so much to those around her whether that was through mentoring students, helping faculty, and even organizing numerous trips to the Museum of Natural History.  What a wonderful life she led.  Rest in peace Joanne. 


I am so sorry to hear of Joanne’s passing.  We were colleagues at FFU and she was a great help to me whenever I asked.  I hope I was as good a help to her.  We carpooled from Stratford to FFU for several years and shared stories and news every day.  

Joanne had a generous heart and she will be missed.



Dear Barb:
I just heard the sad news about Joanne. So sad, but my thoughts immediately were for you. My sincere condolences, old friend, on your terrible loss. May those around you bring you strength and consolation. Blessings on your head,
Paul

Joanne was such a wonderful soul. I remember attending her Ignatian guided prayer group many times at the Fairfield U. chapel, and she and Barbara inspired us so much with their spiritual insights. Joanne will be sorely missed, but I know she is  guiding us in a different way now. Rest in peace.

Joanne's office was right next to mine in the Fairfield Biology department, and I always knew things would get taken care of when she was around. She and Barb offered me rides dozens and dozens of times because they knew I took the train. She was generous and loyal and she cared.  She had so much energy.  I am thinking about Barb and Joanne's whole family at this time of unfair and incomprehensible loss.

So saddened to hear of Joanne’s passing…
We worked at Fairfield University at the same time and our paths crossed in CPE at Bridgeport Hospital in summer 2014… we had a good time re-connecting. I will cherish co-leading our cohort in the Examen & Imaginative Prayer with Joanne.
Rest easy Joanne with God, Jesus & the Holy Spirit … 
Love & Blessings to Joanne’s family
Jean


My sincere condolences to Joanne’s family. I was very sad to hear the news today of her passing. She was a fellow Fairfield U. alum and an extremely dedicated and conscientious member of the Biology Department for many years.  I enjoyed many conversations with her over the years. I will miss her.  Rest In Peace, Joanne,  and know that I am praying for the loved ones you left behind. 

I’m so very sorry to learn of Joanne’s passing. I lost touch with her this year due to the many aspects of teaching during COVID and I feel terrible that it happened.  Joanne was a dedicated member of the Fairfield University Biology department for decades.  Her commitment to the department and her students was incredible.  Her hours of service were never fully appreciated and it took a staff of three to replace her.  Rest In Peace Joanne and May heaven be blessed with your presence.🙏

I was saddened to learn of Joanne's passing. I shared many pleasant meals and conversations with her and Barbara at the Inn at East Hill Farm, in Troy, NH. She was a gentle and caring soul who will be deeply missed.

So sad to hear of Joanne's passing.   Fond memories of the big  Xmas parties she & Barb had at their place.  Joanne playing the accordian.
Her determination to get to Florida with Barb and visit Disney, even tho Barb was now on a walker.  Her utter devotion to caring for Barbara.  Rest in peace, my friend.

I was so sorry to hear of Joanne's passing. Though I moved away from Connecticut over 20 years ago, I have a regular reminder of Joanne and Barbara- cookbook given to my deceased partner and I at the time of our commitment ceremony in 1993. The cover has been torn off, do the dedication Jo wrote always gets me. I wish her family peace and love. 

I was a classmate of Joanne at Fairfield University. We were close friends and I would often study with her in the microbiology lab. Joanne had a work/study job to clean the microbiology lab and I would accompany her. She was a great compassionate woman who would help everyone. Give my condolescences to Barbara and her family. Love and prayers Jo!
