Joni's passion for life was unmatched. Her love for dancing was almost as much as her devotion to animals. She demanded attention from any room she entered with her bright smile, huge heart and groovy dance moves. She could add a positive energy to any situation. On this sad day, we lay to rest, a truly loving, hard working and giving woman, who will be genuinely missed by all.
