Joyce's life was undeniably filled with difficulty. Therefore, it was always remarkable to me that nearly every interaction with her was nevertheless characterized by humor and a quick laugh. The story of her life is really one that witnesses of a resolute resilience whereby each storm is weathered in its turn with the knowledge that somehow, all would be well in the end. And so it has turned out. Through it, she has evidenced of her own confident faith in God and built, sacrifice by sacrifice of time and talent, a loving legacy for her three children and their extended families. We make great show of calling many heroes and heroines in our culture. With an eye only to serve, Joyce was one who truly exemplified the kind of character required to be one.
