My deepest sympathy and love to Clarice, Elena and all Joyce's family. I know how much she loved you all and how you loved her. She will be missed by all who knew her. I feel blessed by being a part of her life this past year.
I had the gift of knowing Joyce this last year of her life. Our weekly visits were filled with stories, laughter and prayer. I looked forward to being with her. She was a woman of great faith and wit! On her 97 th birthday on Feb 1st, we blew out a candle together. I had forgotten that Joyce was on oxygen. The nurses came flying into the room to reprimand me. When they left Joyce said, " they just don't know how to party"! That was Joyce, always a "quick quip"! I will surely miss her
