To Gary, and all of Joy's loved ones,
I am so sorry for your loss. I know noone can make the pain go away, but I hope that you know how many people are trying to help carry your burden. We go through these times, and hug each other, and we can all relate in some way, But we cannot feel YOUR pain. It is, unfortunately, familiar to us all. We lose loved ones, and we stay in this world with those big holes...I just hope you know that people have been where you are, and care about you, and hope that we can help you through it. I hope that you know that the Bible says...."To be absent from the flesh, is to be present with The LORD." Joy is literally...at the feet of God! God Bless You All.

To Joys family, I'm sooo sorry to hear about Joy, I read it sunday night and was too late to make it to the funeral home. What a sweet person she was. I always liked Joy. We worked briefly together at Kriegers but I knew her before that. Just breaks my heart, hard to believe. I ran into her a few months ago, & we laughed & she looked good, never did I think she was sick.I just feel so bad, just too young..My thought and prayer are of course with you all. God bless...Robin Dunham

Life is eternal, and love is immortal;
and death is only the Horizon.
Gary, in Hawaii that year, allowed me to get to know Joy.
You guys were meant for each other.

Jack, Jean and the whole family our prayers are with you at this time. We have been down this path before when life is cut so short for a young person. We don't know why, but they must be in a better place with no pain. I can remember when Joy was born and the happiness our families shared. So you should reflect on that happiness at this time, because life is so special.
Love to all of you,
Carl and Judi Sayre (Parma Heights, Ohio)

To Joys entire family, I will miss Joy for the rest of my life. I don't remember a time in my life without her in it. I could not have asked for a better friend and truely am the lucky one to have had her and all of you to. I can't help but have huge hole in my heart, I loved her so much. Joy was my "first" girl, just about every first in my life I did with Joy. From kindergarten to raising our kids. As I spent time with her over the last month it was clear that our bond and love never left and I was honored to have been there for her. We have lost a very special soul but I have a lifetime of memories, laughs and tears to cherish until we are together again.
All my love,
Carrie
