I know what you mean. I have been watching the Joan and Melissa show on my computer so it seems as if she is still here. She had unbelievable energy and stamina. She left an enormous void.

Joan is making everyone in heaven laugh. and she also might be making St. Peter blush.

One of the things I will really miss seeing is Joan with her stack of felt colors and placing a pin or necklace against the different backdrops. You always noticed her manicure (perfectly done) and what color nail polish she was wearing. Something about those presentations seemed like a throwback to the old days of selling that I remember from my small hometown. Maybe it was her approach. I don't know. But I'll miss that stack of color samples and her voice describing the success of the item against each color.

Also will miss that little stooped-over walk with mincing steps that she'd do when walking in front of others or a display of clothing. I was delighted a couple of those were included in her tribute. Something so simple as that never failed to make me smile. It was sort of in the same category of Johnny Carson's golf swing -- the one he always feigned when a joke bombed.

If anyone has Twitter maybe take a moment to show Melissa some love. Some mean person made a disrepctuful comment and she responded back and it's not cool. The girl just lost her mother.

I didn't see that tweet on her page, but I tweeted her some love.
