Cystic Fibrosis was why Joycelun was a fighter. She chose to look at life through eyes no one understood. She always was the life of the party making sure everyone laughed. Even though she chose not to have children; she loved her bully breed of dogs. Cystic Fibrosis and Camp Pelican helped mold her into the amazing person we knew and loved. She received a double lung transplant on June 9, 2015. Through perseverance and hope she beat the odds against her. We would like to thank Ochsner Hospital for all they have done these past four years. Also, a special thanks to her TSU team, Dr. Rampolla, her pediatrician Dr. Kiernan, and Father Tony with Camp Pelican.
She was a loving daughter, sister, nanny, aunt and friend. Everyone loved her and she touched so many lives. She will be sadly missed.
