Update On Joanne
____________________________ A meeting place for the FRIAMILY of Joanne Daquano _____________________________Wednesday, October 4
from Angela D’Alonzo ...
Hey DQ’s,
I have read the blog daily for the past month or so. Even when there is nothing new posted, I end up reading it from the top to the bottom all over again. Everyone has expressed themselves so beautifully, so eloquently. It is sad to see this meeting place for your FRIAMILY come to an end . We understand the need for you to move on.
I worked with Joanne for a few years up in Georgetown, and was Darcy’s Grade 2 teacher. Although our paths had separated, I thought about her often.
I had the opportunity to watch the documentary today. (My 11 month son old decided to have a 2 hour nap just then, so I was able to watch it uninterrupted!) I had a “good cry” as Joanne would have put it! The documentary reaffirmed what I already knew about Joanne. She was an amazing, strong and beautiful woman. She is an inspiration to us all. Although she is gone from us here, she is still doing her work from “up there”. I now take the time to enjoy the little things. I cherish each day with my husband and son. I make more time to visit with my family and friends.
Thank you for allowing us to share in your most personal thoughts and memories through this site. You are a very special family. I have ordered my own personal copy of the documentary. It something I will keep dear to me and it will help me to remember fondly what a wonderful woman, teacher, wife and mother Joanne was.
My thoughts and prayers are with you,
Angela D’Alonzo

Those who know me well, know I am a person of few words but I couldn't let this blog end without sharing some thoughts. The blog has been an incredible instrument of loving and healing for the "framily". I know Joanne had so enjoyed checking out the blog each day. In sharing our thoughts, I think we have learned much about each other. I believe we have been truly blessed in this endeavour, which had originally set out to be a way of keeping informed. Thanks to all those who have made this possible and to everyone for sharing and caring.
