Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
To the family of Joani Schoenhofer, We both hated to hear of the loss of Joani, but know she is now in a better place. Joani suffered a hard and long battle. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Tony & Rosemary Wondra
Aunt Joani was an wonderful example of a loving and caring woman. She always had a smile to share. She was exceptionally kind to my son Luke, whom she took under her wing while he completed community service jobs at St. Vincents. She took an interest in people and their lives. I’ll never forget how open and accepting she was,(while others remained understandably cautious),when I moved to Wichita in 1985 from Las Vegas and joined the Schoenhofer family when marrying Mark Schoenhofer. She was a beautiful lady, inside and out. She will be greatly missed.
Art, Jim and I arrived in Branson today and will be here all week. We brought the Wichita paper with us and saw Joani’s obituary. We were so surprised and are so sorry for your loss. Our prayers are with you and your family.
Joani will be missed by all at church. She is an exemplary Catholic, and well loved by all. It is my privilege to have known her 20 years. My sympathy and prayers to the family.
Aunt Joani will be greatly missed. I have the fondest of memories of her. God bless you Art and family.
Beth, Our thoughts and sympathies are with you and Judy and your family. We are sending you caring energy…. Brenda and AJ
Joani Schoenhofer was a great and giving mom who raised a beautiful family! She will be greatly missed by all those who knew her!
This is way better than a brick & mtorar establishment.
Will miss Joani when I attend mass at SFDP she was there to help and greet people.
