Karen and Nancy, I will miss my friend so much. Joyce loved me unconditionally and I knew that. She was a beautiful lady inside and outside. For many years she has walked by my side and held my hand through my valleys and on my mountain tops. Few people in life are blessed with an earthly friend like God gave me when He gave me your mother for my friend. A part of my heart went Home with her but I will see her in the morning. Doris Propst
