Steve and family,
I'm so sorry for your loss. Joy was a wonderful woman who lit up when talking about her grandchildren. I only knew her a short time during her illness. But I know she was a woman devoted to her family. My sincerest condolences.

Joy was really the perfect name for such an incredible person. She gave some of the best hugs, and she was full to the brim of nothing but the best qualities. Her work as a Boy Scout leader gave so many boys a place to be on weeknights that the community would have otherwise lacked. I am sending my most sincere condolences to her family at this heartbreaking time.
