Aunt Joyce and Uncle Verne made several trips to Illinoi to see relatives. It was always great to see them and visit and fun for our children and grandchildren to get to go in the camper when they were little. Aunt Joyce was very artistic and shared that with us. They were interested in our llama project. We will miss the visits.

My parents were friends of Joyce's parents.We visited the Jocelyn's home in Los Feliz Hills, Los Angeles, on many occasions, during the depression years of the 1930's. We (my brother Jack, and sister Margaret) always enjoyed those get togethers with Joyce and her brother , Richard. They were a wonderful family. Joyce will always be among my happy memories. Ken H.
