Condolence From: Karen Smith
Condolence: I loved Joanne, she was my friend, secretary and mentor for more than 20 years at Traner Middle School. She was efficient, generous, loyal and had a huge heart. In spite of several personal challenges, she smiled and meet difficult times head on.
She loved children, treated them as her own, and influenced many lives; including mine.
To her children, and grandchildren; your mother was an angel, she is watching over you now.

Condolence: So sorry for your loss. I played softball with and against Joanne for many years. She was a true competitor and loved the game. I'd say "may she rest in peace" but knowing Joanne, she is not resting. She probably already has a heavenly softball league started and is coaching and playing on her own "major" team. "Go for the gold, Joanne".
All of you are in my thought and prayers.

Condolence: Dear Rippenham family,
Bill and I were so sorry to see in the paper where Joanne had passed away. She really was such a special person. We were ole friends from H.S. and while I was not a jock, Joanne sure was. I hadn`t seen her in awhile, and that is my loss. I know she was so proud of all of her kids and their kids. God Bless all of you and keep you safe and fill your hearts with wonderful
memoires. We won`t forget your Mama!

Condolence: I'm so sad to hear about Ms. Joanne. We knew her from Imagination Station. Even though she wasn't in either of my sons' (Tanner & Parker) classes much, she always talked to them and told me how much she loved them. She was the sweetest! We will always remember her. Prayers for your family.
