Janice and I were college roommates and we all heard many stories of her love and affection for Joy.
May God provide you and your family faith, courage and comfort to travel the sad and difficult journey ahead.
I ran across this saying when I lost my Mother and I always share it with those who have lost loved ones, since it meant so much to me.
"Those we have held in our arms for a little while, we hold in our hearts forever."
May God bless and keep you all in His loving arms. I am so sorry for your loss.
