• Larry and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I know you meant the world to her by the way she spoke of you. I cannot imagine the size of the hole in your hearts at this time. Joyce was always an absolute pleasure to work with. And though it’s been ~17 yrs since I worked with her, all my memories of her are fond. She always had the best sayings/responses. And Jeannie Mack, I use some of them to this day. Grieve hard and heal well. My love and condolences to all of you. - Posted by: Tannis Charles (Friend & co-worker) on: Mar 07, 2020

• How sad it is that this world has lost such a breath of fresh air!! Joyce was a joy to work with and certainly made going to work worth the trip. She made me laugh and always brightened my day. As we sat and shared she would always express how Larry was her rock - her true love. She was so proud of her Children and loved them so very much. And her Grandchildren - well, no words can come close to the love she had for them!! Joyce was a very special Lady. I will miss her love, her laugh, her hugs -but - she has left me with such wonderful memories!! Hugs - Betty Ann - Posted by: Betty Ann Provencal (Co-Worker and Friend) on: Mar 04, 2020
