    Joy was a very special person. I'm glad I got the chance to be close to her. We had a lot of good times working together at Walmart. All the family is in my prayers. My heart goes out to all of you.

    So sorry to hear of Joy's passing. She was a special lady and was always very good to me. I hate we lost touch because of the distance. She was one of a kind!

    John & Jane, We are so sorry for your loss. Joyce was very special to our family. She came to visit before mother passed away, and blessed us with her beautiful voice. We have all lost a very special person in our lives. God bless you and your families. The Robinsons
