Thomas H. Joyce

Tommy was a funny, brilliant, energetic, competant, delightful human being and a great, great journalist. He feared no one and respected all. He had a wonderful human touch. If either of his daughters reads this will she please get in touch with Rich Thomas, at 301 299 7093, a former colleague at Newsweek, fellow Detroiter and great pal. I'd like to know any memorial arrangements and notify several dozen of his old friends in Washington. Please, Sarah or Martha, let's be in touch. Rich...

My dear friend T.J. Wish I could have seen him the last time he was in Emporium. The years kept slipping away. T.J. let my cousin and I stay at "the farm". I moved his furniture so he could have morning coffee and look at the beautiful mountains. His "farm" is in a beautiful place and he enjoyed it so much. He was a kind and generous soul. I love you T.J. Deepest sympathy to his family that he treasured.

I will miss Tom for the time we spent hunting,fishing,turning and talking.Tom was the best. Loved Tom for who he was and what he was, the best friend I could have ever had.

I use to live in Emporium and knew Tom pretty well but haven't seen him in a few years but do know he will be Very Sadly Missed by many of us from the mountains of Emporium............Tom was always a Dear Friend and to say the least He Will Be Sadly Missed !
Many Blessings and My Deepest Sympathy To All His Familyand Frends Going Thru Loss Of Tom..

Tom inspired me with his love of wood and wood turning. We enjoyed reminscing about sailing (we talked about, but never sailed together -- a missed opportunity). My condolences to Lee.
