To the family of Joyce Graham, I know the pain and lose feelings you are now feeling no one can take away. At least no human but God can help with all of this, He can put His loving arms around you, comfort/love you, and bring to your memory that Joyce is walking, yes walking with Jesus. No more pain, no more bend over, she is able to dance with the angels and be with David too. Just know that we all care and we will miss her too. She was one fine lady always.
