Jay, Patsie and I wish to express our condolences on hearing the news of Joyce passing. I haven’t had the privilege of seeing you guys since Daddy’s funeral and did not know she was dealing with sickness. We pray for you and your family’s peace during this time of grief. God bless you all.
Phillip, Vickie, and family, I am so saddened at the loss of Joyce. She was so important to our family. I will never forget her kindness when Jason and Jonathan were born. She came over every day to help me with them. She loved us and we loved her. I’m so happy that we reconnected on fb the past few years. Love and prayer for all of you. Victor and Mildred Forte.
A great lady. Hard to think she is gone. She was always checking on mom and dad these past few difficult years. She was a caring person. She will be missed.
Phillip and family:
I am so sorry to see the loss of your sister. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
So sorry for your loss. She was a sweet lady
You will be greatly missed Aunt Joyce. Prayers for you Uncle Jay for you now and in the time to come. We love you
Amber, Walter, and Sherry
