Tim,
As usual I am so far behind in my email and it is ironic that I read your email on the day that Joy died. Somehow I knew I had to read my email that Friday because I remember telling my son, Jay, that Joy could be dead and I'd never know it if I didn't check my email. We all knew this day was coming but I didn't want to believe it. Tim, it looks like you and Joy (had)have lots of good friends and you were so sweet to keep us posted about Joy. I hope that somehow you find strength from all our prayers and find comfort in knowing you had an earthly angel in Joy and now you have her as your own spiriual angel.

Tim, our thoughts & prayers are with you! I have many memories of Joy. The boys and I spent Thanksgiving with her and her mom at Grandmas! We also had a lot of fun after William & Hillary's wedding singing Karaoke! Any time spent with you & Joy was always very enjoyable. We will miss her!

My thoughts and prayers are with you
in your time of grief. May God bring you comfort. I remember Joy as a beautiful little girl with long hair.
At our last class reunion she introduced herself as Lucille Ball because she had red hair.
