"Some people come into our lives, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never the same. Joyce your beautiful sprit and smile will never be forgotten, I will miss all the long talks we would have about life and Jehovah. I will never forget Sunday July 7, 2019 you came to my house, to tell me you were able to wear your shoes again and you did a little dance as you left. Little did I know it would be your last dance on earth . I love and miss you!!!
