Joyce was my cousin who I always looked up to. My sister, Debbie and I were flower girls at her wedding. She will always have a special place in our memories.

I have always been inspired by Joyce. I have been friends since I started babysitting her kids. She would run into me in town and it was like we saw each other every day. I guess I will run into her in heaven now. Such a good person truly.
