Notă biografică

While happily raising two teenage daughters and an eight year old son, JoAnn Freeborn was thrust into the challenge of caring for her husband's parents who were both terminally ill with cancer. Five years later, upon their deaths, she determined to devote her future energy to making every effort to help others who were caring for their loved ones. She returned to school and earned a B.S. in Mass Communications. She did her graduate study at Oxford University in England, and ultimately served as Executive Director of Region Ten Area Agency on Aging. During her tenure, JoAnn never saw families grieve over dirty floors or unwashed dishes following the death of a loved one. She did however, comfort many families grieving over broken relationships and unspoken words. Therefore, she developed and implemented a unique, holistic approach to effective and mutually beneficial caregiving based on strengthening family relations as an essential component.
