Joan was a good neighbour and more importantly a very dear friend. She will be greatly missed. She cared so much about the physical and mental welfare of others and especially prisoners of conscience. I am pleased to donate to such a worthy cause.

Joan was a great and generous friend. Her life was a witness to the love of God in this world. Joan lived by the instruction in Hebrews 13:2: "Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers..." Through her homilies, Joan witnessed to the love, compassion, and forgiveness of God. I thank God for the life and witness of Joan Van Emden.
