I grew up with Joni and we lived close by each other on the eastside of Madison! She was always so kind and generous along with her two brothers Keith and Kevin of whom I myself and brother Todd Robinson knew! Such a sad loss at a young age! I will forever remember her and our good times growing up! Miss you Joni, love Tabatha Robinson-Schreiber. 🙏😇. ❤️.
