Our deepest sympathy goes to Maurice, Ivan, Daniel, Emile and the rest of the family, on the loss of your mother. Though we never met her, you can tell she had to be a remarkable woman. She must have been very proud. Condolences from all of your co-workers at Transcona. Stay strong. - Posted by: Holly&Perry French (co-worker, Transcona Roofing) on: Apr 25, 2013

We had the pleasure of getting to know Joyce when we were involved in the planning of the Bernard family reunion in St. Claude a few years ago. We enjoyed the visits we had with her and the information she was able to give for the Bernard family book. She will be missed. Our sympathy to her family. - Posted by: Liliane & Gilbert Bernard (extended family) on: Apr 24, 2013
