My deepest condolences on the loss of your precious Mother! She was such a dear sweet loving lady! As hard as it is for your family I know she is happy to be with her wonderful husband Billy! He was a dear funny man! Anytime you were around them You could see the love and respect they had for each other. Joyce was a wonderful cook. I had the pleasure to eat with her and family a couple of times. My memories of time spent in her and Billy´s home are cherished. I wish I could be there for you all today! Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you All. Mrs. Joyce will be truly missed!
Sincerely Brenda Mengarelli

Joyce was a wonderful woman. She always was so good to me and welcomed me into her home on all occasions with her family. I will truly miss her but I know she was a Christian woman and is in Heaven. My prayers for the family during this time of sadness.
