Sadly we lost one of nicest people in field trials this week to cancer at a very young 68 years old. Condolences to her husband Roy, her children, siblings, and to the many in our small community who loved her, she always wore a smile and had a kind word.

Very sorry to hear this. Joanne and I were to judge together later this summer. I was wondering if I might see her and Roy in Colorado this weekend.
My condolences.

Truly one of the nicest persons I've met in the dog game. She will be missed.

RIP Joanne.

Joanne was not only one of the nicest ladies in Field Trials but an excellent dog handler and Field Trial Judge. She was extremely knowledgeable and extremely kind and no matter how badly your dog just blew up in the field, she would mention something positive that just happened. She was undoubtedly one of the most encouraging people we've ever met. She loved her dogs and she loved the competition.

It was an honor to know you, Joanne. You will be incredibly missed and I hope that you are with your dogs from the past and still doing what you love....somewhere.

Condolences to Roy,

Jan and Steve

She was generous with her smiles and laughter. Nothing better can be said of any of us.

Yes sad days.
To Roy and her family Peggy and I want to offer our sympathy on the loss of Joanne.
Those of us in Midwest and American Am remember her well.
To me she was kind of a sister. She was always there of good cheer, motivating, consoling when needed, yep and sometimes scolding, bless her.
Jan & Peggy

Kudos to the Centennial Retriever Club. They honored Joanne this weekend with streamers of her favorite colors tied to the test dog birds, along with moments of silence/remembrance for Joanne at each stake.
