Not sure what to say?

I was so sorry to hear about Joyce. I loved working with her at the library at Cape Fear Academy for a few years. Her wry sense of humor helped the days go by quickly. Her lovely service at church was a very fitting tribute to her life.

What a lovely tribute for Joyce
You described her perfectly
The library at Cape Fear Academy was a safe place for so many❤ Prayers for all her family and many friends

Sending hugs and prayers for you're broken hearts. I hate I didn't have the pleasure of meeting her, she was beautiful and sounded like a wonderful Mom, Mimi and friend to all.

Keeping you and your family in my prayers.

Our sincere condolences to the family. May God give you strength and comfort during this difficult time.

Thoughts and prayers for the family in this time of sorrow. May God bless each one of you.

Holding you all in my heart. Much love, Trudi

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
