I just recently learned this sad news.
Joyce was a very special person, and very
independent. I loved how she loved animals
and her life on the farm. She was so kind
to my mother, her Aunt Jessie. I will miss her beautiful smile and her wonderful Christmas letters. She was an older cousin who I admired greatly. I share your loss!
