As you remember your love one, as God heals your broken hearts (Psalm 147:3), may your treasured memories continue to bring you peace, comfort, and strength to endure.

I loved Joy. So many of my fond memories of Bethel UMC include Joy and other wonderful folks. I will never forget Joys smile and her obvious love for Christ. She was an amazing pianist and her talent was clearly God-given. I am sure the angels are happy to have her in Heaven as she is most likely organizing the heavenly choir and giving everyone "their note". Prayers for all.
