So sad to hear of Joyce's passing. She was a true and dear friend during difficult times in '67,'68. May her memory be a blessing.

So sorry to hear of Joyce's passing. She was an amazing teacher, mentor and friend. She and I celebrated the same birth date, so I wanted to wish her a Happy Birthday and may you rest in peace dear friend.

My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends.
