Rest peacefully my sweet friend! I am so honoured to have been able to call this wonderful lady “mamma Joyce” for many years. Barb, Joyce and I spent so many happy hours together in England on a choir trip, short road trips, planting her flowers in the spring, fun in the pool after, short road trips to shop, girly talks about what we were wearing for special occasions and the must have pictures, then more recently Barb and I helping to bring out and put away seasonal clothes. Joyce had a story for every piece we picked up. I am missing her dearly and will carry many precious memories in my heart. forever. Barb. Paul, Cheryl and family I feel your pain. Love to all,Sharron

Joyce and Cy were one of the first people we met when we returned to St. Peter's a number of years ago. They make us feel very welcomed and that kept us going back. We have missed them these last few years. Joyce, I am sure you are happy to be back Cy's side again.

God has her in His keeping, we have her in our hearts.

I knew Joyce in Kapuskasing when she was a librarian and I was a book loving child. She inspired me to be a librarian which I was for many years.
She also helped me when I lived in Toronto with 3 little children under the age of 2 (twin boys and a girl)

A great lady, a wonderful and relaxed hostess, always ready with a smile and quick wit. Glad I knew her.
