Joyce you are the classiest lady I have ever met with an incredible spirit who touched so many lives. I thank you for letting me adopt you as a "mom" and appreciate all the wonderful family meals and moments I got to spend with you and your beautiful family.

To My Sweet Mother, May the winds in heaven blow in your ear every day and let you know that I Love You and Miss You So Very Much!! I plan to see you soon. xoxox Shirley
Joyce and I prayed together every Thursday afternoon for at least 5 years then we prayed on the phone. We celebrated our birthdays with special lunches.
A special Lady that is unforgettable .
So happy she is in Heaven with no more pain.
Joyce was a dear friend to so many! Especially Alice at church. They spent time talking about how good & faithful the Lord was throughout their life.
They had fun celebrating birthday lunches with ladies at church.
Joyce was loved by so many friends! Alice Thornton was one of them. Their long friendship was special & they loved worshipping the Lord at church & attending Life Group Bible study with their friends & visitors.
Birthday lunches were fun for all the ladies in Life Group!
Alice called Joyce
“The First Lady” because she was beautiful, nicely dressed, & showed love and compassion in all that she did. Alice & her family dearly love Joyce & thank the Lord she was our friend.
Joyce was a very gracious and loving wife, person and Mom. She always welcomed everyone into her life so that she could share her love with them. She will be missed by all who knew her.
