So sorry for the passing of a classmate & friend. Our thoughts & prayers are with all the family. She will be missed. Could always count on the smile. Even when we knew she was hurting because Wayne was so bad in the Hospital. Dale & I went to see them, she had the big smile for us. Will never forget her. Dale & Connie Godwin

We were childhood friends, growing up together, going to church and Tuesday night movies (another story) ~ I know you are smiling as I write this. I can hear you saying to me ~ in our phone call last week "Girl, I love you". You always made those around you feel special. Your laugh was infectious, your caring was sincere, your love for your granddaughters always showed. Joyce, you my dear friend and now singing with the angles. "Girl, I love you"! ~ Bill & Ann

Joyce was one of the first people I met the day I had my first interview with Peco. She was a lovely lady and work will not be the same without her there. Prayers for her family, friends, and coworkers.

Cousin Joyce , we shared so much of our childhood together. I will remember you fearlessly leading Anna and me through the woods around your house; smearing goo on my sunburns while you and Anna tanned; endless debates over Elvis vs. the Beatles and your laugh. I still hear it. Be at peace my friend Love Tessie Jean

Aunt Joyce I still can not believe that you are not here with us, but I do know that you are at peace and that you are now in heaven with the love of your life Uncle Wayne. And you finally get to meet Elivs the King (that your Great niece Baylee is now in love with and has records of him as well). I love you and will miss you very much!!!! You always made me laugh and put a smile on my face and always made things seem alot better than what they were. So until I get to see you again......I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!
