Robert - It was with sadness that I learned of Joy's death from Susan Givens. I remember when Jerry and I had dinner with you two, Sally H. and John Templeton at The Water's Edge some year's back; and just this fall, I asked her to join Judy, Sally, and me for lunch when I was in town. She was not able and Judy went in the hospital the next day. I have so enjoyed seeing the pictures on this site and what love comes through.

Mrs. Wallace was always so welcome and hospitable, opening her home to me and my family several times over the years.
She was much-loved by her family! I grieve with them the loss of their mom, but take comfort in knowing they will be reunited one day, and what a joyous day that will be.
You have all my prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with each of the wonderful members of the Wallace family. Not only did I enjoy knowing each of you, but I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know your spunky mother. She knew when to be serious
but also when to laugh. Your mom did an excellent job of raising you six children. I pray for guidance and strength for each of you and your loving
dad. May God's grace sustain each of you during this difficult time.

I love you! Kathryn
