I was so proud to work with Joyce for two months before she became sick. She was one a kind and treated me with so much respect and I was so proud to say I was her friend in work and with the Lord. God bless her and may she rest in peace.

Sending love and hugs to her family, whom she always loved bragging on. I had so much respect for Mrs. Joyce, and she became a dear friend who stood by me and always gave me great advice. I most admired her fiery spirit and professional way she conducted her business. My thoughts and prayers are with her family.
