I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. Joyce was always a real presence in the room. Lots of energy and personality. She will be truly missed.

I´m still in shock. If it wasn´t for Joyce I would not know how to fix a car. I enjoyed our times going to the junk yard looking for parts. She was so caring and I learned so much from her through conversations. My condolences to the family and continue to keep you in prayer.
