I worked with Joyce at Rio Hondo Municipal court in El Monte. She was one of my dearest friends. I lost touch with her after her and Bill moved to Sedona but was able to recently make contact with her again and we visited a couple of times recently through facetime. She was beautiful as always and happy. I am so thankful for that time to talk to her. You will be missed my beautiful friend.. Vicki McIntyre
Joyce is my other Mom and I loved her so very much. I’ve known her for over 30 years. Throughout those years she has always been so supportive in everything I’ve done, as she gave me advice (and recipes!) We’ve shared so many memories. I’ll always remember in my stressed out and impatient youth, I would pull up in their driveway and slam the gate…she always commented to my Dad “Oh boy, Teri’s here. I wonder what the problem is this time!” She always loved me, no matter what my problem was! She was so kind and caring. I love how she and my Dad took care of each other in a relationship that is pretty rare to find. Watching her grow in her faith as she became baptized and confirmed in the Catholic church was just amazing! She is now resting peacefully in the arms of our Father. But I will miss her every day. I love you, Joyce!
