Lewis and I were very sorry to hear about Joyce. Living in Oklahoma City and Joyce living in Vancouver did not give us the opportunity to really know Joyce. When we visited Pam and Keith was the only time we got to visit and know Joyce. I always enjoyed our visits because I did not only get to visit with my immediate family but also with her. I remember the last time I saw her was when I was visiting the kids and we were playing croquet. I wasn't doing well. Joyce was just watching and all of a sudden she was giving me instructions on what to do. I did not win but we sure had a good time trying. We gave each other a big hug and a high five and said "Watch out for us next time!!!" I wish there had been a next time. We had some good laughs. Joyce was very artistic. I have seen several pictures that she painted and it would be hard to choose one because they were all good. I got a big kick our one which was a cow (Cindy has it). All the different items she made for her family are real treasures and I know her children really appreciate them. To her family, Joyce, Mother, Grandmother and Great Grandmother was a real treasure.
God saw her getting tired and a cure was not to be, so He put His arms around her and whispered, "Come with me" and her golden heart stopped and her hard working hands were put to rest. God proved to all of us that He only takes the best.
With our sincere sympathy, Lewis and Nannette Hunt
