If you had the opportunity to meet Dick Joyce, at the very least he likely became one of your dearests' friends.

Dear Nancy, David. Jennifer, family members, and friends of Dick and train enthusiasts, on behalf of the BOD of the Nutmeg Division and the National Model Railroad Association we send our heartfelt condolences to all of you and to let you know that our prayers and thoughts are with all of you at this time of loss and sorrow. May Dick have the train ride he always wanted and may he rest in peace forever. Dick, Thank you for your service to the country. Ronald J. Pelletier...

Dick and my father, Ed Powers of Hampden, MA were friends. I remember coming over to the house in Wilbraham and seeing the model railroad in the basement. Dick was such a nice man and always made me smile and laugh. I remember watching trains in the rail yard in West Springfield, spending time at the annual train show with Tucker's Hobbies, and enjoying chocolate fribbles at Friendly's. I was just thinking of him a few months ago before the Train Hobby show this year. My condolences to Nancy...

The Joyce Family It was truly a wrench in my heart upon hearing of Dicks passing. He was a lovely man with a great sense of humor. I worked with him at Friendly´s and he´s played many a joke on me. I worked in personnel department. A loss to all.

Judie and I worked with Dick at Friendly's. We are so sorry for your loss. Dick was a wonderful guy. Having grown up in East Longmeadow, I frequented the Friendly's in EL. Many teenagers showed up and Dick was able to deal with it all in a gracious manner. He seemed to have had a great life. God bless you Dick. Dave & Judie Carpenter

So sorry to hear of Dick's passing. I was at reception desk and Dick would always stop by to say Hello and be the person to wish me a Happy Holiday even if it wasn't one or a joke it was a great way to start the day. Ginny Giovannini
