So sorry for your loss!🙏🏻
Where to start. Joyce and I first met in the summer of 1954 when her family moved next door to my family on Rockdale Road in Follansbee. We very quickly became close friends and remained that way throughout our lives. For over 40 years I called Joyce on her birthday (March 28) no matter where either of us was at the time. This coming March 28th will leave a void in my soul because of a missed call. We both went through some rough patches in our teenage years but we were always there to support each other. Thankfully the rough patches were greatly out weighed by the good times. So, my very dear friend, may you rest in peace until we meet again someday. Ron Geary
Tracie, so sorry to see about the passing of your mom. You have our deepest condolences. When ever we would see your mom out she would always take time to say hi and talk. Take care and God bless, 🙏❤️🙏❤️ Sue(Nice)Moore and Judy Nice

Uncle George and the entire family, my family’s sincere and deepest condolences. You’re in our hearts, thoughts, and prayers. I pray for peace and comfort in the coming days and months ahead. In love, Holly and family
You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I always loved Joyce and feel blessed to have known her. Rest in peace Joyce.
It was such a pleasure working with such a dear lady at WMC many years ago (back when she was an aide on Level 9). She was always one of my favorite people! My heartfelt condolences & prayers for the family! Kathy Law Hirkala
Saddened to learn that Joyce has passed away. Our paths did not cross often but I always enjoyed seeing her and Bob and later George when she visited my parents. Sleep in peace, Joyce. David Hendrickson

Joyce (Jo) and I met when we were both 12 years old. We always remained friends and kept in contact with each other no matter the physical distance between us. We were each other’s pillar of strength through some difficult teenage years. I miss her
