So many memories of all the good times together. Joyce was a wonderful friend and I have missed her. We always stayed in touch and always said Hello this is the other Joyce.

I am grateful and blessed. Joyce gave us her son Don. My son-in-law, husband to my daughter Kim. Which gave me my grandchildren Courtney and Tyler and his wife Meghan. Who gave me three great grandchildren Elliana Grace, Owen John and Matthew Boaz. Her legacy lives on. R.I.P. Joyce. Well done my good and faithful servant.
