I always felt uplifted when I saw Suman's (Joannes's) sweet smiling face when I walked in the door. Her gentle, steady nature had a calming effect on those around her. I'm grateful for the times I shared with her. My thoughts are with Fiona, family and friends as you celebrate her life. With Love Judi Byrnes
Joanne was a much loved member of the Siddha Yoga community in Melbourne where I knew her by her spiritual name of Suman. I have such fond memories of Suman's gentle and sweet presence and the poise and grace in which she played the Indian stringed instrument, the tamboura. I offer my heartfelt best wishes to all of Suman's family and know she will be forever in our hearts. Warmest wishes, Jake Bartlett
