Bubby let me know about Joyce's passing. I want you all to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. I have such fond memories of Joyce - especially when we celebrated Paw Paw's/Uncle Henry's birthday every year or when we visited and Mato took us out on his boat.
She certainly is up in heaven now with everyone else - smiling on ya'll.
My love to you all.
