We miss you much Aunt Joy. You have always been a very special part of our lives and we will always remember the good times we had together. Thank God we were able to visit you when we did and it was very painful to watch you suffer. You are in God's hands now. Until we meet again. Our love, Shirley and Bradley

I worked with Joy many years ago at Lasso Western Wear. She was very special. She taught me the love of football and to love the DallasCowboys. My prayers are with the Perry family during this time of need. I talked to her a few weeks ago and we had planned to get together but never got the chance. She will be missed.

My Dearest Sister and best friend. I will miss you so much. You will always be in my heart. I have loved you since you and Paul were born. All my love forever. Jenna
