Just 14 years old upon her passing, this wonderful person provided many with the opportunity to view their lives with a new passion and vigor. Joanne selflessly gave her life for a friend, and is thought of by many as the true definition of "hero."
Upon her grave marker are words she herself once copied from a matchbook cover: "Courage it takes and courage you've got; If you were born Aries a coward you're not!"
