Baby Joyce, I am glad that I shared a part in your life and it was wonderful, there are no words I can say because I am hurting because you left us too soon. I know as we grew up together there were secrets we shared when it came to any of us in our age rage how we coped with a death of one another, it is too much to digest. You are a child of God, a daughter, a sister,a cousin, a neice, an aunt , a wife and friend and you were great at what you did . I am so proud of you Joyce. I will always remember your drive and I hope you passed that on. We will meet again and RIP BABY Joyce!!

I truly don’t know what to say. But, these words were given to me last year and in time became true to be.
"I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an unforgettable imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love." - Leo Buscaglia

Keeping you in our thought and prayers. This is a time for gathering all the best of a good life into the pages of memory to be held in your heart forever.

And when you remember her take comfort in the way she would want you to keep her memory close, not with sorrow but with joy and peace.
