Thank you everyone for your sympathy and prayers.

We miss momma everyday but know she is no longer suffering.

We also know that we will be with her again some day and we are all blessed to have had her in our lives.

I Love you and miss you Mimi. I know you can't read this, but I know that you can hear my prayers. You have made such a difference in all of our lives. See you in Heaven!

I am Sarah Ainsworth, Joyce's granddaughter. She had been living with us for the past two months or so, therefore, I was very upset to find she had become ill. In the past few months I was able to get to know her better than ever before. I was happy to find that she was the greatest person! Not that I was suprised or anything, she had always been a wonderful grandmother and mother in my eyes. We will all miss her very much, and there will never be anyone else like her or anyone else to take her place. There is not a day that has passed where I haven't thought about her and something she did in her life that touched someone else. I also am always thinking about all of the people who are hurt by her passing. But she is going to be with her husband Billy now. She will be happy. I love you MiMi, with all of my heart. May your soul rest in peace.



Love,

Sarah Ainsworth.
