My sincere condolences to your family. I car pooled with Joyce when she worked at Mt. Ayre/North Newton School Corporation MANY years ago. I thoroughly enjoyed her company and insight as a young teacher. She always talked fondly of her family and guided me as I struggled with career decisions. She was a real GEM. My sincere condolences. I am sure she as touched people in a positive way than we will every know.

My deepest sympathy to you and your family. I worked with Joyce at the old Mt.Ayre School/North Newton School Corporation MANY years ago. We car pooled together and I thoroughly enjoyed her company. We laughed and plotted together daily. I also remember her as such a lady with sooooo much knowledge and insight to the world. She always talked about her family with such reverence and understanding. As a young teacher, I valued her guidance and prospective. It was my privilege to know to her. She was gem..... My deepest sympathy.
