Sending my deepest love and prayers to the entire Joy family at this time! Your Mom, Grandmother, Great-Grandmother was indeed the ultimate JOY every day of her beautiful, long life! I enjoy so many memories of knowing her from childhood right up to her recent years, and not one single memory doesn't have a smiling, happy, adorable Frannie in it! I'm sure she is the same rockstar in Heaven as she was in her life on earth, and a beautiful Angel now watching over all of you with your Dad, Grandfather, Great-Grandfather, Leigh!
