Though I never had the chance to meet Mrs. Early, it’s clear she was an incredible woman whose love, strength, and kindness left a lasting mark on those around her. Her legacy lives on through her family. My thoughts are with you as you honor her memory.
Ms. Joan was my mom’s God-sister and dear friend for many, many years. She was a blessing and a ray of light to our family. I will cherish all of the great times we’ve shared including this photo that I will always keep. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. I love you all, take care and trust God!
Mrs Early was a very remarkable person. I am so glad that I had the privilege to know her and her family. She made me feel like I was apart of the family. I will miss her very much. I will always be there for the family.
I'm so sorry to see this. She helped me get my first job after college and was inspirational in me publishing my first book. Rest In Peace.
My deepest sympathy this breaks my heart Joan is very dear to us may God be with you your cousin Alfreda🌹
I remember being eight years and moving into a new neighborhood called Briargate. Joan and Dale Early we are our first neighbors. Although I was just a kid, Joan was one of the few adults who actually spoke to me as if I were an adult. She didn’t mind me calling her by her first name. For a kid who was accustomed to formalities, this was unusually refreshing! Joan was always open to a conversation and a visit to her home anytime. Im so happy to have those memories and will cherish them always! Joan, you are forever loved!
Shimon Lang McLean ❤️❤️
