I met Joy at Jazzercize years ago and even though we lost touch, I always thought of her as a friend. We had many girls talks and I always found her to be a great listener and fun to share stories with. I am so sorry that all of you especially Joy, had to endure such pain, anxiety and losses at such a young age. Know that I am among the ones who cares about her passing and will remember her fondly.

Please know how very sorrow we were to hear about Joy. I told Joan Jones that she was the perfect example of her name. I didn't know her long, but it was very obvious that she was God's child, who loved her family with all her heart.
We are so blessed that she came to our Bible Study and we were able to call her our Friend.
May the Lord hold you close and give you His precious Peace.

Dear George,
I was so very sad to read about Joyce's passing. I know you will miss her terribly. I didn't know her well, but am sure she must have been grand like you. It is always a joy to see you from time to time.
Know that I am thinking of you and hoping that during the healing time in front of you will find comfort in your love for Joyce and her wonder.
Remembering you and the marvelous work you do and the short time we spent together in the studio of Channel 5. Who'da thunk you'd become a celebrated doctor????!!!!
Love and hugs,

I meet Joy as my superviser at work in Balt. County Hospital. Soon we became good friends. I remember her talking about you George while you were dating and glowing with happiness. Even though ya'll moved to S.C. and I to West VA. We still
came down with Bonnie, Larry, Dix and Chris to your beach house. She would make us feel so welcome and relaxed, like the relationship was never changed. She held so much love in heart and gave it so freely to her friends and family. I will pray that God will ease everyone pain because I know she has her place right next to him. I will see you again some day my dear friend, JOY.

I didn't know Joyce well but I remember she loved gardenias as I recall a beautiful gardenia bush you bought for her and hid in your office until you could take it home and surprise her.

Joy was my cousin, my friend, and my second sister. We were together from as early as I can remember. Being close so close in age our moms would dress us the same and even cut our hair the same! We spent many happy vacations at the beach together with all of our relatives. As we got older, it became harder to be together. We always had an annual visit, and we would pick up where we left off.
My love and sympathy to George, Hannah, George, and Aunt Re. I am so sorry. It just seems too early to say goodbye.
