My thoughts and prayers go out to your family during this time, I’m sorry for the loss of your beautiful loved one. May God give you comfort today and in the days to come.
I am so sorry to see this. She was such a sweet lady! You all will be in my prayers!
Billy, Ronnie and your families, you are in my thoughts and my prayers. Your Mom was a very special lady! I have many happy memories of times spent with your family; Mura Drive was a better place because you were all next door. We couldn’t have asked for better neighbors and I am saddened to hear of Joyce’s passing. Sending love, Diane (Botham) Jones
