Joyce was truly a gift to this world ... a lady with a twinkle in her eyes, energetic personality, bright smile and most of all a strong Christian faith. Once you met Joyce she remained in your heart forever. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister and friend who will be greatly missed.
