I'll neve forget when Classy Clippers held a haircutathon when the two officers were shot in Georgrtown. Joyce swept hair as long as we were cutting hair . She was an inspiration to everyone who knew her. She will be greatly missed. I've never seen anybody with a sense of humor like hers, even as she was lying in that hospital bed.RIP Joyce
