Sending my deepest sympathy for Joyce’s children and other family members. I was so very sorry to read yesterday of her passing.
I always loved speaking with Joyce when I ran into her a few times at the store or down the road close to my home. Anytime I saw her she always had a sweet smile on her face and shared funny stories with you to make you laugh. She was a goodhearted and sweet person.
Sadly, I had not seen her for quite awhile now. I will always remember the days long ago when I styled her hair sometimes at Lucy’s Beauty Shop and we talked about our families and had a fun time thru her hair appointment.
May God Bless and give you Comfort for the days ahead.
Love,
Sandy (Madden) Pauley
Jill I’ve lost contact with you. I’m sorry about the loss of your mother, very beautiful lady. Heading you a big hug.
