    We were very sad to learn of the profound and earthly loss of Johanna. We felt her giving spirit when just a week before she had eagerly emailed us some photographs to use for a company anniversary video featuring her dad, Vic, and her grandpa, Frank, both men whom she loved very much and held in such high regard with pride and respect. Our hearts are breaking for the family, for our dear Vic and Janice Sue. We love you.
