I’m feeling saddened learning of Joanne’s death. I so enjoyed knowing
her. She was the dear secretary at Larsen School where I taught and where I learned to love her. Also living in Benjamin with her as a friend and neighbor sealed our friendship.
Condolences to you Ned and your family.

She was such a wonderful lady. When my son was diagnosed with diabetes in first grade, she always made sure she had something on hand if his blood sugar went low. Mrs. Losser and Mr. Argyle made Larsen School a wonderful place!!! She lived a long life and will be greatly missed.

This woman was so special to me! I loved caring for her while she loved at seasons. We had a special connection from her first day and I loved her so much. I called her Granny Losser cause she sorta became like my granny while she loved at seasons. I had so many long talks with her and loved spending time with her. Ned and her always set aside a small candy bar for me or a cookie or asked me to join them for a coke… I will miss her.
