For the Cassmeyer/Mayens family I am so sorry for your loss. Joanie was a sweet lady and an amazing cook. I always enjoyed being at the farm whether delivering sawdust or bucking bales. Some of those bales weighed more than I did. They always treated everyone like family. Sympathies. Joe Boehm

Extending my deepest sympathies. May you have many memories to remember your mom by. Velma Bernskoetter I
