Dearest Milton and family,
Feel very sad that joyce has left us and gone. But I am sure she has gone to a better place in heaven, very close to Lord Jesus and the angels.We will always remember Joyce as the loving,caring, lively and bubbly Joyce.
We will miss her always. Very sorry I am not able to be present in person there with you at this time of sorrow and grief, but you and the family are there always in my thoughts.Please accept our deepest condolences and sympathies.

Dearest Gracy,

Was saddened to hear about your dear sister, Joyce. Please accept our sincere and heartfelt condolences to you and your family. May her soul rest in peace and pray that the Lord provides strength and comfort to each of you to bear this irreparable loss.

We too are trying hard to cope with our grief having lost my sister Bern (Goregaon) and her husband Placid. They both died in the tragic bus accident that took place on March 19, 2013 while enroute to Mumbai from Goa. It is extremely hard to cope with this grief.

I pray to the Lord to give Joyce's husband Milton and daughter Francine all the courage and strength to move on and what more can i say..... thinking so much about Mummy too. I pray for each of you. God bless!

Dear Milton,

Its hard to believe that Joyce is no more, her memories will always be there, her smile and bubbly nature.

May her soul rest in peace and god strengthen you.

Dear Milton & Family
Its was very sad to hear about Joyce. May her soul rest in peace and may god give you the strenght to bear this loss.

Dear Milton and Joyce's family,
I am one of Joyce's classmate,when I was praying for her soul yesterday with the presence of Holy Sacrament in a divine Mercy chapel this thought came to my mind ,let us do some thing so her name will be remembered for ever.The thought came to my mind is to start a charity fund or scholarship to a financially struggling Jaslok student.I am in touch with many of our classmates and I can ask them about their opinion.Let us do some thing before her name fades away as everyone says she is still vibrant with that sweet smile in our mind.There is no other way to contact you all,what you all think,will you please let me know.
God Bless You all!
contact me or any of her classmates you all know.

Joyce no one can ever forget that beautiful smile that welcomed everyone everyday. You brightened the ICU whenever you worked. No matter how hectic your day was or how tired you were, you never let that show through your smile and always offered your help. You worked each shift for your patients and their families. You've touched not only their hearts with your prayers, your patience, and your kindness but also made an impact on the hearts of all your colleagues and your friends including me. Our memories of you will live forever in our hearts. My heart mourns for your loss but shares some comfort that you are no longer suffering. Although no words can express my feelings of sympathy or completely ease your loss, my thoughts and prayers are with your family.

My prayers are with you, Gracey, as well as Joyce's family....You were a wonderful sister and I admire the closeness you shared and the support you gave her....Patty McInerney,RN Inpatient Cardiac Rehab RN

Dear Joyce,
We want to thank you and Milton for your very special friendship as well as for introducing us to your lovely close-knit family, who welcomed us into their homes and their hearts giving us a sense of having an extended family here in the US. Memories of all the lovely outings we had together- before our kids started school, all the singing and dancing sessions at birthday parties, the surprise baby shower before Jason was born, but most importantly your beautiful smile even when I'm sure you were not feeling your
best, will be fondly cherished, FOREVER. You will be missed, Joyce, missed a lot......
Our love and continued prayers are with Milton, Mai and the entire family.
Mario, Queency, Myron, Keith and Jason.

Joyce, what can I say. You promised to come to Canada to meet us this summer and now you are gone. Your smile even in the last few days of your life is still fresh in my heart. when I called you a tom boy, with the little breath that you had, you told me that I was a tom boy too..... love you joyce. in your darkest moment you never forgot to tell me that you loved me and asked for Aloysius, Anthony and Abigail.
we love you and coming back to grace/precy's house will never be the same again. Pray for us. love you Greta & Aloysius Shu, Mississauga, Canada

When it seems that our sorrow is too great to be borne, let us think of the great family of the heavy-hearted into which our grief has given us entrance. And inevitably, we will feel about us their arms, their sympathy and their understanding.

Milton, so sorry to hear of your loss, may your wife rest in peace and may you and your daughter keep her memory, laughter and love alive in your hearts.

My deepest condolences go out to all of Joyce's family. Joyce was such a lovely person and always so kind to my family. I will miss her smile in church.

Joyce you were my schoolmate from Divine Child and at the chapel everyday when I visited with my grandmother to listen to Fr.Phillip. Hadn't been in touch for a long time and it was too late by the time we did get in touch. Remembering your daughter in a special way and the entire family as they overcome this loss. I am sure you will continue to look over them.

Dearest Joyce, Words cannot express the loving and caring person that you were. I will always remember you as the bubbly,happy smiling face even when in pain. Rest in peace

I Remember all the good times spent together in school.Dearest Joyce rest in peace .

I keep asking myself if it is a bad dream and I will not hear you calling me Agu! Anymore. The charming face I saw an year ago in Dubai has been snatched away and is now smiling at us from the Lord's garden. You are and will always be treasured in our hearts for, the immense love you showered on your family is incomparable. I do not have any words to express the loss we are feeling right now but share the comfort in knowing that you are not suffering anymore. Someone special as you Joyce will never be forgotten. You will always remain in our hearts as long as we live. The smiles the giggles the little sweet nothings we shared are but sweet memories . A special sister, a devoted wife and most of all a warm human…… what a beautiful memory you have left behind……………………………………

Love, Denise & Tom Steinert

We are so sorry for your loss...We are praying for strength and faith to get you through this difficult time.

Such a beautiful person...such a beaufiful soul. I'm so sorry for your loss.

So sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with your entire family.

My last memory of Joyce is of her heading to work; sometime in the early nineties. I watched her from the balcony of our apartment in Bombay and we waved to each other. Another hearty wave to you, Joyce.

Joyce,I started out by calling you Pinto, in school and I guess that name always stuck all through our years,in Jaslok as student and staff nurses and then in St. Johns Bangalore during our PcBsc.U were a good friend,and an excellent nurse.I love you Pinto, may you rest in peace and my sincere condolences to your mom, Milton, Francine and all your siblings and their families.I'll miss you loads.

May she rest in peace, and her family get the strength and faith to go on.

Joyce's family - May God comfort, protect you & keep you in the palm of his hands during this most painful time. We pray that God will give you the strength & the Spirit of peace that surpasses all understanding. We admire the faith and love of your family & the faith that Joyce had during this time. We will continue to pray for you & for Joyce. May God bless you & the Virgin Mary protect you. Love, Jay & Ynnette

May Joyce soul rest in peace. My prayers are with the family. We studied in the same school she was my senior previous batch.

Our prayers go out to Joyce's family. We were in school together and I will always remember her luaghter and joie de vivre. Rest in peace my friend.

My deepest condolences to The family of Joyce and Milton . She was a very joyful person true to her name and brought a lot of laughter to the people around her. Eventhough I only knew her briefly in St. John's ,she is among the few who make an impression on you that stands the test of time. RIP Joyce with The Lord.

I am very saddened and shocked by the news of Joyce's demise. She personified kindness. Always smiled and said hello.
I am so sorry, Grace, but I'm sure she is receiving the rewards of eternal happiness.

All our love and prayers to all of Joyce's family, especially Milton and Francine. We knew Joyce through Rolland and Grace. She was truly a light of God in the world. I remember Grace pulling us along to just stop in at their house after a 4th of July fireworks night and the openness, and loving hospitality of Joyce and of this whole extended family blew me away. We love you all dearly. And BELIEVE and KNOW Joyce is all light, all joy, surrounded by loved ones in the Almighty's arms and incomprehensible presence! Mary and Cate Bruner

My sincere condolences on the passing of this truly inspiring person.

I have known Joyce for almost 20 years now. Hers was the first smiling face I saw when I first called on Gracy (now my wife). She served as a bridesmaid at our wedding. In all her years, I have never seen anything but a smile on her face, even in these difficult last several days.

She inspired me with her life. I will never forget the time we were stuck at her cousin's flat in Borivli (northern Mumbai) during the communal riots outside. Despite the risks of travel in public at that time, she left the house to go read scripture for Father Philip D'Souza, a blind Jesuit Priest. I continue to draw inspiration from that single act. She taught me what it means to persevere and follow your convictions in the face of adversity.

She and her husband Milton even postponed their nuptials so that her Gracy and I might attend! That is dedication; that is love.

Joyce was a bright light in our lives, one taken much too young, much too early. However, I think her life stands as an inspiration of what it means to live-out the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The cruel irony is that she was an ICU Nurse who cared for very ill patients just as she became herself. We take comfort in knowing that your suffering is at an end and that you are in a better place now.

I am sure that you are now at the roadside in heaven somewhere enjoying channas and chocolates with your Dad!

Rolland C. Coutinho, your loving brother-in-law

Our deepest heart felt condolences to Joycee & Milton's family.

Dear Joyce, words cannot begin to describe how much you meant to Tanya and me. You comforted us in time of need. You were always there and helped us when we needed you most... YOU are the reason we are still together. I want to THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. Tanya always looked up to you and loved you dearly. You helped comfort my Mother when she lost her brother and I will always love you for that. We are all sad because of everyone you left behind but glad that you are no longer in any discomfort or in pain. You meant more to us than you will ever know. We love you and miss very much. Pray for us all - Tanya and Karl
