My condolences to Joyce's family. She was such a wonderful person as we were growing up as teens, and she was a beautiful person inside as well as outside, with the biggest laugh, and the most wonderful personality. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Love you all, family. I am thankful that God allowed me to have a sister in Angie for all these years and be adopted into such a loving group of people. Joycie was the big sister to whom you could always expect to hear truth and raw reality - sprinkled with laughter because no matter what she said, she always made me laugh. Rest easy, love.
