Not sure what to say?

I also worked at Starbucks. I loved when she came in always had something nice to say to me. I will miss her. Rest In Peace Joyce

A blonde vanilla latte, a strawberry refresher with no berries. I had the pleasure of helping Joyce (and Randy, of course) nearly daily with their morning beverage fuel. Joyce was more than a customer, she embodied the first three letters of her name to a T. My deepest condolences for this loss. While they steal such a large part of us when they depart, they also leave a large part of themselves in its place. Find comfort in memories and tears, don’t ignore them. ♥

So sorry for your loss, thinking of the entire family during this terrible time.

Wiklund family,
Very sorry for your loss. May God provide you with peace and comfort during this time. God bless
Dana and James King

I am so very sorry to hear of the loss of such a wonderful educator and person. I worked with Joyce at Nathan Hale School, and she was the ultimate professional and such a kind, friendly and supportive person. My deepest sympathy to her family.

What a great loss for you all in her family. She had amazing talents and her gifts in the quilting world were evident. She was a warm welcoming woman at the NSQG guild meetings, meeting new quilters and introducing them around. Her quilts were amazing. Her talent in organization were evident as she worked to bring our quilt shows to the public. Her kindness will be remembered as well as her creativity. I hope the memories you have of this dear woman, will carry you through your grief. Joyce...

I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of Joyce. I worked with her at Einstein School, she was such a beautiful person. May the special memories your family made together help you through this difficult time.

Very sorry to learn of your loss. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. We hope you take comfort in the support of family and friends around you and the many amazing memories you all have with Joyce.

How very sad that Joyce is gone way too soon. Joyce had great energy and so much to give to others. She was a great coworker. My sympathies to her family. I wish you strength in your grieving and peace in your healing. May her memory be a blessing.
