Our condolences to the entire Cote' family in the home going of their mother, grand mother, great grandmother, friends.
She was a delight to be around. She has stepped over the threshold into glory and joined those who have gone before.

I would like to extend my condolences to families of Joy and my good buddy Jack Cote I've missed them both. She is happy with Jack Cote and of course our Lord and the rest of her family and love ones Blessings Peace Love y'all!

I have such fond memories of Joy while I was working at The Warm Friend (2011-2014). She was always so delightful to be around.I know that she made such a positive impact on the people around her. My deepest condolences to the family during this time. I pray that God gives you peace and strength, knowing that you will be reunited one day!

Joy was a dear friend and neighbor....I shall miss her and our visits!

Joy has been my dear fiend fo over fifty years. It was one of those instant friendship from the moment we met, but it was cemented in a forever way when early on in our friendship I was lamenting to her about friends whose new found encounter with the Holy Spirit had caused them to be somewhat overbearing. Joy quietly listened to me and said this: Never underestimate the power of th Holy Spirit. That's when she became my soul sister.

Joy was just a joy! As a mentor, family friend, and even Tulip Time employee at her gallery, she was a very important influence on my young adult life. Her creativity, object lessons (usually starting with "ya knoo-oow........."), sense of adventure and caring friendship were legion. And then there is that wonderful laugh, which echoes in my heart even now, so many years later. My prayers are with the Cote' family. I'm glad Joy was a part of my life.

Blessings to the family of Joy Cote. She is now in heaven with Jack and many other friends and family members. She was a blessing to Christ our Savior Lutheran Church for many years.
