Joyce found so much joy in reading. We brought her books from the community library, and every time we came her face would light up with that beautiful smile of hers. She would talk about the last book we brought and was always excited for the next one. I will miss her enthusiasm when we visit the care center and will always remember her fondly.

What a blessing Joyce has been! When she came to worship on Sunday afternoons at Majestic Bluffs, she always brought her friendly, bright smile and her eyes which were filled with warmth, compassion, and understanding. The Lord grew a strong faith in Joyce and it showed very clearly. As one of the pastors who conducts worship services there, I miss her and her welcoming spirit. I'm thankful for her and her genuine love for others. God's grace and peace to Kim, Chris, and all who love Joyce.

I have sweet memories of Joyce. I was her house keeper for several years. I will never forget Joyce. Blessings and prayers for her family and loved ones. Joyce always had such joy and love to share with others.

Joyce was such a fun and kind hearted soul. I remember the joy we would have coming to the house on the lake to swim all day, Kim and Chris coming on vacation to MN with us and the family visits at each other homes.
Such a incredibly memorable life, she will be missed by all for certain.

Lonnie and I had tea with Joyce a few times at her home. She was so proud of the upgrades done on her property. We visited her at the nursing home and she always was in good spirits. She would talk about her family life. She was a neat lady. My condolences to Kim and Chris.

Joyce was a lovely lady. I enjoyed our many talks over the years; both professionally and socially. She was a favorite of mine. God speed Joyce.
