  4. Joan, Our hearts are with you. Joe Don was such a gentle and genteel servant for the Lord. We have fond memories of you playing the organ and Joe Don leading out in worship at FBC Miami. May Jesus' love hold you close to His heart and give you comfort in this tremendous transition time in your life. We will be praying for you.
