"I first became acquainted with Joan during my high school days in the early 50s. She was a classey lady who supported her husband throughout his many years of coaching. She always presented herself with grace and a sense of caring toward the many students and faculty persons with whom she came in contact. May her soul rest in peace. And, please accept our sympathy, Coach Watchorn, and her other family members. My associations with the Watchorns made me better person. Thank you. John"
