Oh God! What sorrowful news about Joyce's passing. So much time has gone by but our fondness for her never waned. Know our hearts cry with yours, but we shall ask the Good Shepard to help us remember the great moments we had with her at our house where Amy and Joyce couldn't stop changing Joey's diapers or slathering a whole bottle of baby location on him. She always wore a sparkling smile;she was a joy to be around. We ask Our Lady of Sorrows, who understands your pain, to enfold you in Her arms and give the consolation she knows you need. Our love to you all.

Joy was a ray of sunshine that never failed to brighten my day. She will be missed be myself and all of her friends in our little "Burton Grove Family" so very much that it hurts. My prayers continue to go out to the family and Barth. If you should need anything at all, please don't hesitate to ask. We are all here for you.
