Joy! We miss you so much! You were an amazing person and you touched many lives. I loved your smile and miss it so. You were an awsome mother and thought everyone what they needed to know! You were always there when ever Jess and I or anyone ever needed anything! Now everytime I look at something Noah's Ark I think of you! I will never forget you! You will always be in my heart.

Dear Dave, Jessica and family,
I just recently learned of Joy's death. It was a shock...I am heartbroken for your loss. Jess, I think of when I ran into you and your mom at the gym and you both were so excited about your baby... Joy was indeed a joy to be around, it was a blessing to have worked with her, she became a friend...I will miss her. Our loss is heaven's gain, she is waiting there, and we will see her again.
You're in my thoughts and prayers. May God's peace and mercy sustain you and may he lift your hearts and mend the broken places...

to my beautiful mother- You were the best thing I have ever had in my life. I am so thankful to have Hunter during this time. I niss you so very much. You were the best mom anyone could ask for. You had the best heart and were always there for everyone, especially me. You showed me how to make good decisions and because of that during this hard time, I am able to make the right decisions. Thank you so much for the lessons you have taught me and the unconditional love you have shown me. I miss you so much mom! I wish you were here with me now but i am so thankful you're no longer suffering. I cannot wait until the day I see your beautiful smiling face again. I love you with all my heart forever. Thank you for everything.

Words can not start to express the love Joy gave me in the few years we had together, Nor can I thank all of her (our) Freinds enough, You all have helped in ways you could not Imagine. God Bless You all,
There will be a Foundation set in her name and I will post that when it becomes available.

Joy, I cannot believe this is how it has ended for you. I was in Ireland when you passed and thus was not at the funeral. You have made many impressions on everybody and me also. If I could send you a card or a postcard now, I would. But those days are now over. May you be in a better and restful place then you were in the past several months. Much love Linda Manning.

Dear Dave and Family,
Joy and you visited via boat last summer, and she/I picked the best of our blueberries. I worked with Joy as an OTR, and admire her. The service was beautiful. Our N.Auburn team will keep you in our hearts and also....Joy would say "Keep it up"!

Beauty was Joy
Laughter,love, a few of her charms
Courage, compassion, her embrace
Tears slow
Memories surface to lift our spirits
Goodbye young one with your handprint on our hearts

Dearest Dave, kids, and Wanda - I don't know what to say. I cannot believe this has happened to "our Joy." Joy and I had some really fun times. She was always such a clear thinker on the job, and fun to be around generally. I'll never forget when we were poolside in Phoenix and she asked the waiter "do you do virgins?" She meant to order a virgin Pina Colada. We all laughed til we cried. I miss her so much. I will not forget about you guys. Jess, if you need mothering advice, or general advice, please call me. Love to you all. Rose Moor

DearJoy, Words cannot express the feelings that come with losing someone you love. I know you understood how I felt about you and the the life you led. So many people have been touched by your loving and caring nature. You were a loving mother,super daughter,fantastic wife, excellent therapist and super friend to all. Since first meeting you in high school in 1983 to our last days together at North Auburn Rehab there has never been a better friend to me than you. Im so sorry life was cut short for you. I will always keep your memory close to my heart, and I will never forget the pinky promises. Rest in peace my beautiful friend in the arms of our heavenly father. Till we meet again! Shannon

Dear Dave:
Joy and you have been inspirations to me, examples of people who found joy in the Lord even in adversity. I cannot completely comprehend your pain, but God knows it; remember He had to watch His son die on that cross so that we may live. He loves you. Keep looking to Him! -Rosanna
