Ann, Jeffrey, Daniel, Megan and Mia and Mrs McCormick. My heartfelt sincere condolences to the loss of Joyce. Alot of great memories and knowledge gained about the history of the area and the island where the transmission line and cabin is located from corresponding with Joyce and her late sister Betty when they would have me do TV antenna work or minor electrical work at the house in the park (Bukolt Park) in Stevens Point, WI. It was a real pleasure to talk with them and get pictures of when the Wisconsin River Stevens Point Flowage was lowered in August of 2008 for repairs to the dam a true wealth of knowledge. May God rest her soul. I will remember her in my prayers. Phil J Janowski, Town of Hull, Portage County, WI
