While Joyce has left all of us - family, friends, community and customers - she has left behind good memories of the good person she really was that will stay with all of us for the rest of our own lives. As hard as it is, let's try not to take her loss with sadness but let her spirit be the force for keeping such a great small family business going with quality and a sense of presence in their town...just an amazing wholesome product that has become on of life's little pleasures !! My memories of her go back to my childhood and I'm almost 60 now. God bless her

Our deepest sympathy to the family of Joyce's . She was such a wonderful person. Yes she loved ceramics and when my 3 daughters were little they use to go and see her to learn how to do the art work on these items. They are Carol Anne, Linda, and Christine. { Maiden names were LeClair ) They always had a wonderful time with her. RIP Joyce. Eileen Turcotte. Litchfield, Maine.

I will miss our conversations through the window. We would always have a good laugh and catch up on each other's life. One time she instructed me to bring the kids to the side door and then she handed them spoons and an almost empty bucket of custard. The girls still talk about it. Thank you Joyce for creating a special moment and a lasting smile. You'll be missed.

You were such a vital part of New Gloucester, doing kind things for so many people. I remember with love how good you and your daughters were to my children and to me when I was raising my family. You were a blessing to your family and to your town. Rest in peace, dear Joyce.
