I feel very fortunate to have had a sister-in-law like Joyce. She was one of those people who never forgot a birthday or anniversary, and she was the glue that kept our families together - always planning in advance and orchestrating the next family gathering. My admiration for her grew the last few years as I watched her battle her illness with remarkable courage and grace. Though there will always be a void in our hearts, I'm comforted to know that she is no longer suffering.

Joyce was a terrific friend and a great human being. We were friends for eleven years, and during that long time, I never heard her say anything negative about anyone. Don, you were her angel, and she appreciated and loved you deeply. Kati and Steve, you were her pride and joy.

I was very lucky to have Joyce as my friend since childhood. Although we lived miles apart, we kept in touch throughout the years and I treasured our occasional visits in person. She was my BFF. My thoughts, prayers and love go to Don, Steve, Kati & Garon, to Joyce's Dad (my Uncle Vern), to Linda (an amazingly supportive and loving sister), to Karen, Audra and Jay and to all Joyce's nieces and nephews. I believe Joyce will be watching over all of you from heaven. XOXO Flossie

For thirty years you have been my daughter in law, friend and canning partner. Now you hurt no longer, we are the ones with the hole in out hearts from your leaving. Thank you for being a part of our family. Love Mom

Loved the cards Joyce made for me and will treasure them with special thoughts of her. I will always remeber Joyce walking across the field at the Tigard Baloon festival with her walker and oxygen just to say Hi to me. It meant so much to me to see her smiling face again. I am also glad she is not suffering any longer, and so glad she got to see her first grand daughter. You will be missed dearly, you were a very special woman.
