I worked with Joyce way back in the day at the State School. She was always fun to be around and so full of life. She had a huge head of hair that was always meticulously groomed and a huge smile on her face. Prayers for each and every family member.

Joyce I have so many memories that I flash back on from our Jr. High and High School days, I will never forget how we became the best of friends. I'm glad to have known such an genuine person, you would make me laugh when I wanted to cry, you would make me stop and think how blessed I were when I would hear you share your testimony of things you were dealing with. I would be laughing out of control at something you have said, and I can hear you saying "girl stop laughing, I'm so serious, I'm not playing" Even though we didn't talk daily, whenever we got together it was just like I had just seen you. I will miss you dearly, but I have a joy to know that when I think of you I'll see your beautiful smile and hear a word of encouragement because you were my friend. My prayers and condolence to Raymond and your entire family, my heart is with you in this your hour of bereavement. There will always be a void but thank God for your time and cherish those memories and keep them in your heart. ~ Norma J. Tanner-Phenix
