It is so heartbreaking to discover Jocelyn's passing, I am so saddened by it. Jocelyn was referred to me by a friend and although I did not have many encounters with her, I found that when I did she was such a kind and gentle spirit. Due to this, I feel that just as she has touched my life, she's touched the lives of so many. I hope that her husband, children and grandchildren have found peace in knowing that she was a shining light and a gift to the world.

Rest well sweet Jocelyn,

Angie Perkins

You were awesome Jocelyn. The world needs more caring people like you. Thank you for being apart of my life and health.

Jocelyn has truly impacted my life as well as a much much larger 'community' of people through her dedication and travels, insights and skill, research and ever-growing knowledge, caring concern and friendship in a way that no one else could have. I am just deeply saddened to see this time come, but grateful and joyful knowing I had the opportunity for such a special person to be a part of the lives of my entire family, and an integral part of my life over so many years. Mr. Wright, Rachel and Kyle, thank you and the rest of your family for sharing her with so many. She is and will be truly missed.
