Dear Dale, Barbie, Eileen & family,
My deepest sympathies during this very sad time. I will cherish the memories of Joyce that I have, especially, Joyce doing the Hula with her hands, while sitting on the front porch in her chair! She was a darling person! I only wish I had known her longer. Many blessings to all of you. Sincerely, Susie Brunson
