Karen, Krista, Karla & Kirk,
It was with great sadness that Jerry and I learned of your mother's passing. We always thought of Joyce as "forever young" and appreciated her energy and zest for life. We recall how she always greeted us with "Hello, neighbour," and a fine neighbour she was.
She leaves, besides her dear family, many friends and will be greatly missed. We will be donating to the Alzheimer Society in her name.
Sincerely,
Joan & Jerry Manuel

to all the family
I just can't believe that Joyce is gone. She was a fixture in my childhood, graduation and wedding. She watched Alicia grow up and now Ayden. I was lucky enought to have had 4 grandmothers, and 2 mothers. Joyce helped me through some tough times. Even though my name didn't have the KJR initials she and doug had a special name for me Annie Rooney.
In my thoughts always,
The other bookend

It was a shock to hear about your mother Joyce's death. She was such a friendly lady and we loved to talk to her when she visited the store for more material which she said that she didn't need but the bag that she making had to have a special piece of material. Give our sympathy to the family at this time of sorrow. Sincerely, Brenda Robertson

To the Rice Family
Joyce and I became friends in 1948 at teachers college and kept in contact over these 60 years.
Everytime she made "Joans" banana bread or pudding squares she would call me. I am unable to get to Fredericton but I am thinking of you all every day. I kept in contact with Pauline during the days in hospital and was shocked and devastated to hear of Joyce's passing
Sincerely, Joan Belyea Hfx NS

So shocked and sorry to hear of Joyce's death. 'Shediac' will never be the same. I am glad I have a bag made by Joyce. She was a woman of class and compassion, life and laughter, and guided by family and friendships. May she rest in peace, Nancy Constantine, Wpg.

What a lovely women. We are so saddened to hear of your mothers passing . There are so many things to say of this wonderful lady. Kindness is the first word that comes to mind. Second is happiness, what a positive outlook, every time we spoke she only had positive happy thoughts. Anyone who had the privilege of meeting Joyce knew they had just ment a special person. I loved your mother for her ability to overlook flaws see humor and have so much joy in her life. She always spoke with such pride regarding her children. We will miss her very much.
