Schatzi I remember your aunt and how much your mother loved her. Their penny poker when visiting on Arrowhead Trail. I am thinking of you and your family during these difficult times.
When my now twelve-year-old was just three months old, I was so sad about leaving her for the first time at Ashburn Village Country Day School. My worries were for naught when she spent each day with the precious "Miss Johanna", who showered her with love. After my daughter graduated to the next class, we exchanged annual Christmas cards with Johanna. Just a few short years ago I had the pleasure of catching up with her at the hair salon, and she had the same delightful twinkle in her eye. We send our deepest condolences for your loss as we remember her with great fondness. She left an indelible mark on our family.
Sincerely,
The Waxvik family

I must share a story about Johanna and my mother, lillian Carruthers. They were roommates at the heritage hall rehab. center together. We would visit Mom there often and she and Johanna were each other's support system....one afternoon I popped into their room and they told me they were tired of the food, so I rode back home to the town of Bluemont, VA. and cooked them steak on the grille with a yummy salad and baked potato and they ate everything.....Johanna and mom kept in touch and after mom's death I, too would chat with Johanna.......she was a sweet caring woman and I share with you all my sadness at her death....linda c. corley
