Joycelyn children werent aware the this money is being donated to a charity..her daughter not knowingly did it by accident instead of setting it up to go them them directly to aide with arrangements. Please do not send any money .. they are in the process of editing info so they may receive the funds.funds already donated will go to charity and not her children..thanks Alicia (friend)

Joycelyn and I sat in the same row at work. I’ll remember her feistiness, her laughter, our talks about how to keep her plants alive and her love of jigsaw puzzles. Heaven gained a sweet angel with a smile to light up the sky. ♥️

My deepest sympathies to Joycelyn's family and friends. This is heartbreaking news. Joycelyn was a true shining light and always with a joyful spirit. She used to call me the 'lovely purple lady', because for some reason she always caught me wearing my one purple sweater. Her energy and spirit would uplift any room she walked into. You will be truly missed.

My deepest condolences goes out to Josey family. Josey was my little sister. I always remember I couldn’t wait until the summer time to go to my Aunties house to go next door to be with Josey and the family. I was always there from day begin to day end. My Auntie used to tell me to take a break but they were my best friends my family. I loved her so much and never forget the wonderful times we had. We built many memories for so long and I will always have them to carry me on. And to Josey’s kids and mom,
Wanda, Duke and Duane I love you guys very much. Now sis is in eternal peace with dad. She will be looking down on you all protecting you with dad to keep you and her kids safe from harms way. Take your rest now sis you deserve it. As I will love and cherish all the wonderful times we spent together. I love you forever and a day. Until we see one another again pass those golden gates. Tell my mom, dad and little sister I said hi and I love and miss them also.

My heart goes out to her family and her Abbvie family as well (as we all loved being around her). Joycelyn had one of the biggest hearts alongside a spunk and zeal that was contagious. Her expressions and "worldly" observations were priceless and she always had a great comeback. She truly had a gift of making people feel comfortable and happy and I think took on a personal responsibility of making sure every new teammate felt welcome and included. Whenever I needed a brief pick me up at work I would swing by her desk and would count on leaving with a smile. She will be deeply missed.

Joycelyn was simply beyond amazing. She was like family to so many of us at Abbvie. She was kind, generous, compassionate, and understanding. Anyone could approach her with a request. She was always ready to help. We will miss her smile. Hope you rest in peace, my dear friend. Deepest condolences to her family.
