Joy was probably one of the kindest people I have had the pleasure of knowing. She would bring her beautiful art work to Image-Tec (where I work) for scanning and print making and I became fortunate enough to call her my friend. I will miss her dearly and trust that she is now at peace and out of pain. My sincerest sympathy to her entire family and the many, many friends she leaves behind.

I got to know Joy through the Fitchburg Historical Soc., how passionate she was about the history of the town and getting kids interested in digging up artifacts. Glad I got to know her. My sympathies to the family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. Joy was more than my favourite teacher, she touched my heart. I was so fortunate to spend my middle school years in her class. She is greatly loved.
