Not sure what to say?

Little angel thoughts for Joia who just crossed my mind this evening.

So shocked to come across this when looking to reconnect with Joia. Hadn't realised it had been so long. I loved her no-nonsense, but humorous, approach. She never missed a deadline and her copy was always just right. What a terrific loss to her family and friends, and how sad for Joia, who was so very lively, to have her life cut short.

We shared a flat together as students in St Andrews. A most positive person with only good things to say. Never tolerated me sneaking bacon into lentil soup. Thought too, to look her up, and discovered this sad news. My thoughts are with Jim and family.

I knew Joia through drama workshops as a teenager. I have always remembered her warmth and humour - and how understanding and supportive she was at a difficult time in my life. Just thought to look her up now... too late.

For Joia.
Thank you Soodesh for posting. It brought me back to this book and all the lovely postings. I too think of Joia and miss her cheery smile and personality.

I literally googled Joia to get back in touch after 11 years and found this.

Deeply deeply saddened by the passing of this joyful, witty and talented soul. Condolences to all her family.

RIP Joia...

A deeply caring and intelligent woman. Hugely supportive of me. She will be greatly missed x
