To the LaGrone Family, Sandy and all your family, brothers & sisters, & their family's, your mom is not suffering any more ,she's in peace. Sorry I couldn't make it to the funeral. Take care.

Aunt Joy was always kind hearted and such a pleasure to be around every time we saw her. Her warm and loving demeanor will always be in our memory.

To our Lord JESUS Christ. We have lost a beautiful and lovely lady "Aunt Joy" to you. A blessed person that had no enemy, her laughter, smiles, her place that was a warm and caring place that no one was sent away. Reminessing of old times, family, and friends will always be missed Always coffee with home made cornbread, or biscuits and jams. She showed her love, her appreciation for what God gave her. This family was blessed,saw great things happen, and sad things pass. But, she will always say "Thank You JESUS for giving me this chance to have all my family and friends with me during good times and bad. My children don't cry for me. I will be with y'all always in spirit. Me and (Trigger) my love ( y'all dad) send our unconditional love to each and everyone.
Love always

I am so sorry to hear about Aunt Joy. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family during these difficult times. We will miss Aunt Joy very much.
Love Steve and Dustin Chadwick

Aunt Joy will be missed by everyone that knew this wonderful lady. She shared her life and made the world a better place. Keeping all of her family in our prayers.

I am her seventh child. All ways felt like and was treated like number one. She taught us to do for the family and not to be selfish. She found pleasure from things of nature(GOD) not the earthly things. We was very poor money wise when I was a child. We all ways had a roof over our head ,food on the table and loving parents. We were never poor! We ate better than anyone I knew because we always ate fresh food that we helped to put on the table. Just ask any of our neighbors or friends because they ate with us regularly . you never left our house hungry. I miss you mama. I am happy knowing that you are in HEAVEN and that you are in the company of GOD and you true love of this earth Veron Joel LaGrone Sr and you oldest son Joey . Thank you for everything you have given me. I LOVE YOU. AS LONG AS MY HEART IS BEATING YOU WILL BE ALIVE WITHIN ME. NUMBER 7 Bruce David LAGRONE

I never had the privilege of meeting Ms. Joy, but I have known her youngest daughter, Mary, for many years both on a personal and professional level. Obviously, Joy was a great mother and tremendous person which Mary represents everyday. Mary is person of strong character and moral integrity which I'm sure made her mother proud. I pray God's blessing on each member of Joy's great family.

Such a beautiful lady, we are so blessed to have known her.Love to all of the family. you are all in our hearts and prayers.

I know Mrs. Joy had a large family, but the only child I had the privilege of knowing is Mary. In knowing Mary, I know Joy. She was an outgoing, loveable person who never met a stranger. Her heart large enough to give to others. She adored the outdoors and family. Mrs. Joy lived a long and prosperous life. How blessed the family is to have enjoyed her love and laughter for so many years.

We love Aunt Joy to the Moon and Back, I will miss all our visit at the Shed ,a place she loved ,watching her garden and flowers grow

So very sorry for y'all loss, all of you are in my prayers & thoughts

Who ever met Mrs Joy loved her for life she makes foot prints on your heart that will last a lifetime. I grew up visiting my Grand Maw Ada Debetaz and remember the joyfull visits with her and my Aunt Ora Dell. She was a wonderful person and I am so blessed to have had the oppertunity to have her in my life. Thanks for sharing this beautiful person with me. I will miss you Miss Joy thank you for being such a good role model to everyone that new you and what you stood for in life. You and My mom Maudry Debetaz Patin were my two hunting role models so I guess it's time for me to step up to the plate and make yall proud. love always.

Our family is praying for all of you. She was a beautiful lady - just look at the legacy of love that she left in all of you! You will see her again in the JOY of heaven!

Great lady,will be missed. Greatful to have known her and the whole Lagrone family.

What a beautiful woman! Aunt Joy made this world a better place. May she rest in peace.

I loved your stories, the sparkle in your eyes when you told them and the way you'd wag your head for emphasis with a sassy smile. My favorite story is when you'd tell about when you first met pawpaw Vernon and he proposed to you the same day! But "he was too little".
I'm so glad he was persistent.
You took delight in the simple things and taught me to love the simple joys. You taught the value of faith, hard work, family, and of growing things--whether gardens or people. I love you and miss you very much.

Thinking of you all in this time of deep sorrow.

Mawmaw you will so greatly be missed by so many you, You will always be in my heart forever! Fly high lady!
