Anyone meeting Joyce falls in love with her.
Joyce and I were good friends for the short time I knew her. We would go yard saling. hit all the thrift stores.
On the 3rd Wed. of the month Joyce would go with me to St. John's .first mass..during mass... Fr. Joe would ask her who she wanted to pray for... she always offered up prayers for her husband Chuck.....then the Forever Young Luncheon. after lunch.. Bingo... Joyce always won several games and usually returning the gift she won back into the gift bag.
A visit to Walmart and the Dollar Tree were always on our list. on the way home.. we would stop at the Tri County nursing home to visit Jeannie Ross.... I'd say.. Joyce .. would you rather wait up here in the lobby.... "Oh no.. I want to say hi the Jeannie... " then she'd make that long walk down the halls...
Thanks for all the good times and all the laughs Joyce.. I sure will miss you... but know I will see you again...
