I met Joyce in May of 2016 when she came to Falls Chevrolet Dealership and was looking for a new vehicle. Joyce purchased a 2016 Equinox from me that month. She had an infectious smile and a great personality. It deeply saddens me that she passed so young. My condolences to the family and extended family as I am sure she will leave a void in everyone’s life. Just remember her smile and the fun times you had with her.
To Sherry, Andy & Family,
We are so sorry to hear about the loss of Joyce. We will always remember how welcoming she was to us in the early years. Our sincerest condolences.
My prayers are with you and your family Ruth.

Sherry and Family, Your mother was so strong. For all the bumps she went through, she always showed me a smile and showed her strength. She reminded me of my father who went through so much as well, yet kept that positive attitude. She was so determined and independent in a positive way. She will be missed, I was looking forward to visiting her at her new place. Wishing all of you strength to get through this rough time. Your mother was one of a kind. Many tears were shed here at Emerald when they found out she was gone. She had lots of friends here.
