I’m so sorry to hear of Joy’s passing. We haven’t seen her for a long time but I will always remember her beautiful spirit and smile. She had such such a positive attitude every time I would talk to her. Our condolences to Griffith. Our prayers will be with you. Grace & Don Reimer - Posted by: Grace Reimer (Friend) on: Oct 05, 2023

Joy and I were the sisters to each other that neither of us had and were extraordinarily blessed with 4 decades of beautiful friendship ❤ The kind of friendship that life could get in the way of and not affect a single thing. Every encounter started with a long, happy hug and no matter how long it'd been since we last connected, we just picked up right where we left off. This summer was no exception and an extra special blessing. We spent many hours reconnecting and enjoying every moment we had together. When the time came to end our visits, we resisted parting ways...Our "see you later" always long and drawn out. It was truly a precious gift for me to have had this time with Joy and to have the opportunity to support her in her quest for freedom ❤ I have always admired Joy more than words can say. My heart goes out to Griffith, her family and many dear friends. Joy consistently presented herself to me with an abundance of pure love, grace, light and positivity; an aptly named human being indeed. Her soft, angelic voice, sparkly eyes, beautiful smile and playful spirit are permanently etched upon my heart 💕 Joy loved a good party and enjoyed my dubbing of September 18 as JOY DAY; a day to celebrate her and honor the freedom she fully welcomed. There's a deep comfort in knowing that no goodbye was needed, for we both believe that our friendship is eternal and continues on an energetic level 💕 - Posted by: Lisa Moodie (Dear Friend) on: Sep 30, 2023

I have had the true pleasure of knowing Joy since 1987. she and her Partner (Griffith) have become like siblings to me and a "Godmother to our daughter Katelynn. I have never seen a bond as strong as the one between Kate and Joy. Joy was always full of love passion and peace, I will miss her so much. Our heart goes out to Griffith. - Posted by: shane crawley (long time friend) on: Sep 23, 2023

Joy was my dearest friend, actually more like my sister. We had a deep connection even though we lost touch for awhile we both knew how deeply we loved one another. I visited her recently for the first time in a long time and we both instantly broke into tears sobbing and embracing each other like it would be our last…and sadly it was. Life will never be the same without you. May you be beyond blessed in the next life, my friend, as I was in this one by knowing you. Love always Barb - Posted by: Barb Rogers (Friend) on: Sep 23, 2023
