About my cosin Joanne,I have many memories of you through childhood to when I seen you at Peachies house this passed summer. I remember sleeping over my grand mothers house in north haven and hopping the fence in the back yard to see my Aunt Viola and Uncle Joe, sitting at the table and watching all the chaos on a saturday morning.Then baby sitting for you in new haven when you use to come home at four in the morning!! You gave me my first car when I was seventeen a 1958 volkswagen. I'll always remember your smile and laugh. Gone to soon, but never forgoten. You will aways be in my thoughts and in my heart.
Love Glenn

I had the pleasure of meeting JoAnne, Jimmy, Joe and Jennifer back in 1999 when their mom Viola moved into Woods Edge. I have never met a more caring a close knit family. When a family member of mine became ill, Viola would pray with me everyday for my nephew. Then one day, she came into my office with tears in her eyes and said "now you have to pray for my family - my JoAnne had a stroke"... and we prayed. I am saddened beyond words for the Farkash and Rubino families at the news of JoAnne's passing. Their love for each other was shown on a daily basis in the way they treated and took care of each other. May you find some comfort in knowing that when she was alive and in her passing, she always knew how much she was loved. My prayers are with you all. Maria Dias

I am so sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how difficult all of this may be. But we know JoAnne is watching over all of us, and she will always be with us. There are so many memmories I have with Aunt JoAnne, but my favorite is the day she pulled my first tooth out. I will always remember my Aunt JoAnne; She will always have a special place in my heart.
With love,
Nicole Jablonski

My cousin, Sammi and I loved to make Nonny laugh. I miss the sound of her laughter. I loved her ( i just started crying) and I always will. She was a special part of many people, especially my lives. I had a dream that i was falling off a cliff and Nonny saved me. Sammi says maybe it was a sign, like she was letting me know she was with me. I am starting to think it may be true. I would like to thank my family and my best friend Olivia for converting me when i was sad about my grandmother. I love you Nonny. And if you are watching over me right now, i want you to know that all I have said is true.
Love Savannah

I'll always remember my trips to Conn. and walking in Aunt JoAnnes house everyone would be sitting around the table and the room was filled with laughter. There was usually food being cooked and popcorn in the microwave. I'd then look out the kitchen window because Aunt JoAnne told me she grew cabbage patch dolls in the backyard! Thanks Aunt JoAnne for making me the coolset kid in school because my Aunt grew cabbage pacth dolls!!
You were a very special person with a huge heart and will be missed.
I love you,
Michelle

I don't remember Nonny before her stroke but the times I do remember where happy times with her! Sammi,Lexie, and I used to sit next to her outside at Sammi's table and talk with her. It made her smile. Nonny was always by my side. I hope for when i am older I am as great a mom as I heard nonny was from my dad. She was a cool, nice,and loving person and hats how we all will remember her as.

When I think about my childhood memories, most of them are memories with my grandmother. We were extremely close. I would have sleepovers with her and my cousin. We would have tons of fun together, eat junk food, play school and house etc. She was the type of grandma that would run in the yard and play kick ball with us and would always be on the floor to play with legos, cars or draw. We had so many jokes. Nonni would always cook for us and always made time for family. She was an active person I remember her huge water bottles she used to drink and her walks she would take. She used to always take her grandkids to swim in Peachy�s huge pool. I remember her letting Lexie and I go inside and look for all her kittens. I remember eating meals at her house with the rest of the family and just loving it. Holidays were always the best because she spoiled us with tons of presents and we always had a blast. She always just had so much spirit and on Christmas that spirit was doubled. Nonni was the greatest grandmother that anyone could ask for. I know that so many people loved her very much but they didn�t have the pleasure to call her their �Nonni.� I hope that one day I can be the kind of grandmother that she was to me to my grandkids. I have already told my mom she needs to live up to those expectations when she�s a grandmother to my kids  and those are hard shoes to fill. Nonni was the most fun person I knew. I remember when she would come help me clean my room with me and shed wash my hair. Even after her strokes she can make us laugh and smile. I know that she will always be watching over us and will protect us. She is in a better place now. I love her so much and will never forget the times we�ve had.

Nonny was my hero. I want her to know that. She was brave and she showed me to fight to win and never give up. I loved her. She will always be in my memories, in fact in the most important ones. She made me smile when ever I saw her smile because then I knew she was okay. When I was little, my Dad (John Farkash) and I used to visit her at Masonic everyday. She loved me, and I loved her more than I loved my favorite doll. She was brave, a great role model. She meant so much to me. Seeing her happy was the best thing ever to me. She used to toss a tennis ball outside with me. She had a much better aim than I did . She meant the world to me. Now I know she will be in total peace. I remember she used to call me, as a baby, facheen which means fresh in Italian.That made me laugh. She is truly an inspiration to my family because of:
1.Her kindness
2.Her loving huge heart
3.Her choices, she knew what was right and wrong
I love you Nonny! you will be part of my heart, forever.
Love\Sincerely,
Savannah

Even though I know she can't hear me now, if there is any way for her to possibly hear this wherever she is now, I would really like Nonny to know that I love her. And I miss her. I hope you find peace, Nonny. You're missed.

JoAnne was a second Mom to me growing up in a 3 family home with John Joe and Jeff.
I have the fondest memories of JoAnne. The time I came down to her apartment and she made us breakfast that was the first time I ever had a toasted bagel with cream cheese. I was a teenager. Emigrating from Italy I did not know some of the American traditions.
She always made holidays special, she took me with them on family picnics. She came to pick us up in New Haven when we went rafting down the Quinnipiac River with Dave. She picked us up when we went skating. She was always there for her kids and me, when I needed advice or guidance. She gave me confidence when I was down and encouraged me to do my best. I will miss her but will always remember her and have in my heart.
My deepest sympathy to the Farkash Family.
Love Sal Cosentino
