Joyce was in Empathia's Affiliate network since 1994 and she was one of the first providers that I added when I took over my new role as Field Operations manager. Not only was see a great therapist and a loyal Affiliate provider, but she was someone that you loved to talked to and share stories witj. I never meet Joyce face to face as I am in WI, but I would consider her a friend. She will be missed and I will never forget her.

My heart is broken . I just found out that my amazing and thoughtful therapist past away. After all my sessions with her, I felt I could take on the world.... She helped me through the roughest point in my life. She wasn't just my therapist, she was a dear friend.. I miss her deeply!

Just found out today. Joyce was a great therapist and friend. I hadn't seen her in a while because I was traveling overseas. On March 7, she texted me while I was in Italy to let me know of her new office address. When I told her I was in Italy, she asked me to have a glass of red for her. Joyce, I did and I toasted you!

A very special soul. So glad you were able to walk along with us for a while. Your physical presence will be missed, but we know you are laughing it up in heaven. Peace to you dear Joyce and to all those whose lives you touched with love and caring. ~Namaste~

I am just today finding out about Joyce's passing. I have to say I am in utter shock. She was my therapist for 3+ years and she had helped me through many tough times. I will miss her laughter and great sense of humor, and I will also miss our sessions. My condolences are sent out to her family. I will pray for you all who mourn her loss.

I am in shock after just finding out about Joyce's passing today! Joyce was a outstanding provider for our EAP (Empathia in Waukesha, WI) since 1994. I had never met Joyce in-person but every conversation that I had with her (the last one on March 4th) was a treat. She was professional in her dealings with our clients and kindhearted and funny. She will be missed greatly both as a therapist and a person!!!

Joyce, we were just serving up food at a charity it seems. You served many people well, personally and professionally and are no doubt enjoying the luxury of life ever after. Big Hug! Cara & Tracey

Today, 3/18, is the anniversary of Joyce's birth. For her family, this day has to be painful on top of the painful loss. For those of us who were colleagues and are still attempting to understand how she could have died so suddenly, there is tremendous grief.
I look into the eyes of her great face and try to learn more. I can't.
Thank you, dear Joyce, for friendship and for intelligence and caring. On this day, in particular, and on all days, you will be held in the hearts of many.

I will miss Joyce, especially her laughter, humorous nature, kindness and wisdom. As my counselor, she helped me tremendously to come to terms with my sister's suicide. I will always remember the chuckles we had over her Mickey Mouse clock, and the fun she had sorting through the Elvis tins I gave her for her friends. Godspeed, Joyce.

Joyce was a meeting planner colleague and I am heartbroken with the sad news of Joyce's death. You could not find a kinder, more sincere, upbeat person than Joyce. She had a wonderful sense of humor and could always make you laugh. I just spoke with Joyce last week encouraging her to apply for my position when I retire next month. I extend my deepest condolences to Joyce's family and will keep Joyce in my prayers.

The photo of Joyce and me was taken at a planning conference in Richmond. Joyce helped me adopt the little black/white dog.

Words cannot express the sorrow and loss of our friend. She was the life of any party, and the one you could count on to put a smile on every face. You will be missed.

I am so sorry to hear about Joyce's death. We were classmates at Belmont High School, played together in the band and were also together in Rainbow Girls.
Joyce was one of the most fun people I have ever had the pleasure to meet. She was so kind to everyone, and I have thought of her with warmth and love through-out the years. We lost touch over time as our lives moved in different directions, and I am sorry for that.
Her family and friends are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
