I am happy that you are free of pain and walking on heaven's shores with our Lord and Savior. I will always remember the fun times we had with you as we were growing up and our visits as adults. Lana, Connie and I always enjoyed the times when we all could visit with our aunt. These were times that strengthened our family ties. We love and miss you.

Can't believe you are home with our Heavenly Father. I know time helps ease the pain. I miss our phone conversations so much. You were a mother to me. I know you would not want me to grieve but rejoice that you are with our Lord and Savior. I just wish I could talk to you one last time.

Joyce was a wonderful, joyful person. I have many wonderful memories of the part she played in the lives of my daughter, my father, and myself. Her smile is lighting up Heaven! Brenda Austin Mason, daughter of Louie Austin (Texas formerly Georgia)

Mrs. Matthews will be missed! She was my bus driver as a young student in Rockdale Co. in the 80's. I will always remember her beautiful voice as she sang church songs on our bus route. RIP Mrs. Matthews and prayers for her family during this difficult time.

I learned so much from Ms Joyce about driving a school bus and agreed with her handling of kids. A very loving and caring lady about her bus children. Spent many days talking and swapping good recipes. Everyone loved her, you just couldn't help it. She'll be missed. Love to you Ms.Joyce

Was so blessed to have Mrs. Joyce watch out for my girls on her bus route. They and I loved her dearly! My kids loved when she would bring a cooler of soft drinks in a can and have their favorite candy bar for them! She was one special lady!
