Hello L. Raven,
What a wonderful Tribute to Joan E this is!
Lucid as well as PERFECTLY matching the theme phraseology; Enchanting flow throughout from the beginning to the end, and depicting its theme in a very NATURAL and heart touching way.
These lines are particularly noteworthy:
"...my heart is broken,
but I know for her
this is not the end, this is just the beginning."
Here lies the UNIQUENESS of the poem, and the poet as well!
Picture enhances beauty of the poem.

Hi RP, Thank You sweet guy for an awesome review...and your so wonderful shinning stars you...
I miss her...sometimes we would just chat into the night...
she loved talking about the places she went...
she did tell me that the last couple times she traveled...
it took her longer to recover...I knew RP she had been sick...
but I have been off and on the site...I didn't keep up...now I
feel so bad...she is now at peace my sweet friend...and my heart goes out to her family and her friends...she will be so missed...God Bless...love Linda xxoo

Keep this spirit up!
With best wishes,
~ RP

Comment from Ronni
Hi Linda,
I can see why this remembrance and tribute to FS dear Joan E..
is so special to you, and how enthusiastically and nostalgically you
recalled those FS fantasy cruises here just as if it was yesterday!
I too enjoyed her travel postcards she shared with us in her
world wide travels, she was indeed the perfect tour guide! And
likewise she was always so kind and gracious with all her fans
and admirers, and indeed she had scores of dedicated fans!
Myself included, an no less saddened by her passing away!
Not many of us knew much about her, yet still she touched
each of us in her own charming, quiet way, that will linger
within us evermore! Gone now, achingly missed and loved
she will remain. Thanks again for sharing this lovely tribute!
Love, blessings always, Ronni

Thank you, Linda, for your lovely tribute to our friend, Joan. I didn't know about her nickname "Highway." I am so glad you got to enjoy her trips. I only knew about a few of them.

Sadly, I do not recall ever encountering her. From your description, I am sure that I would not forget her. Whenever one of our members dies, a vital part of our body dies as well. This is how important I feel each member is. I feel certain that we will miss her contributions in future. I pray that God will keep and bless her surviving family members, strengthening them for the difficult days ahead.

Hi Nolan, did you find something wrong with the post???...
what needed to be fixed???...
Joan was a very talented writer/poet/and artist...she will truly be missed by so many...Thank You my sweet friend...love Linda xxoo
-
No. The post was fine. Did I accidently give a low ranking? Sometimes I accidently give a post a low ranking by mistake. If I can I will update the ranking at once.
-
yes you did...but do feel bad Nolan...I have done that more than I like to admit to...LOL...yes you can fix it...just go back to the poem...and change it...LOL...Thank You...love xxoo
Comment from Iza Deleanu
This was my punch line, I wish I have knew her so well. I think you have lighted up my imagination with these lines: "That was called our Fanstory fantasy cruises
Joan would let me know where they were going
and I would pack my fantasy suitcase
one of my favorites was Alaska
upon coming back
Joan would tell me about each of the pictures
I loved our trips," Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

What a great tribute you have written. I am new on here but sounds like this lady was a very valued member of this site. I pray the Lord will give her family comfort at this time.

The more I read about Joan, the more I realise how well loved she was here on FanStory. This is a heart rending account of a very precious friendship that has been torn away from you by this tragedy. My thoughts go out to you.

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
This is a great tribute to Joan. I enjoyed reading it although it is poignant knowing the outcome. However, your words to her and about her are straight from your heart. Your poem highlights the travels she and her husband experienced. I remember reading several of her poems after they returned.
Thanks for sharing and caring.
Respectfully, Jan

I am too new to Fan Story to know her, but it sounds like Joan was the most amazing person, in every way, but particularly in her care and love for others. You have paid a beautiful tribute to her memory, and given such lovely insights into her nature.
