Joyce was a loyal friend who always wished the best for me and was genuinely sincere. She was creative and fun to be with.We went to London together for a vacation in 1976 and she was my lunch buddy at Arlington High School.She was so gifted in art and even gave one of her pictures to the Moody Blues rock band when we met them and they all commented on how gifted she was to have the ability to draw so great! I will treasure the wonderful memories of my dear friend Joyce Palla.I will miss her very much.May God watch over her always. Brenda and Joe Tavitian and Family
