Re: Joy is at peace now
From '3 months' to '10 years', what an amazing story! Thanks for sharing with us. Please let her family know how much we appreciate Joy. She will be missed.

Re: Joy is at peace now
Dear Jennifer.....My heartfelt condolences to you and your family at this sad time.
Your sister Joy TRULY was a "joy" to this site. Her words were always full of encouragement and love....and her smile was absolutely contagious. She was a true JOY in every sense of the word.
God's Peace and Love surround each of you.
Mary Jo

Re: Joy is at peace now
Jennifer, I am so very sorry to know about Joy's passing. I have been away for some time now because of computer problems, but Joy has been always in my daily prayers. I am so sad.
Joy was a fighter and she was an inspiration to so many here. She brought JOY to this board. She will be missed.
My condolences to you and your family. God bless you all, and may He sorround all of you with peace and strength through this difficult time.
A big hug,
KarlaV.

Re: Joy is at peace now
The news of Joy's passing just breaks my heart & brings tears to my eyes. Her name implied everything she was...I couldn't help but smile every time I saw her beautiful face on this board. She was such a sweet, nice, compassionate & caring person. I always looked forward to reading her posts & can say she will truly be missed. What a major inspriation to us all and a fighter to the end. My heartfelt condolences go out to to her family, and especially her precious childern. I will keep you all in my prayers at this difficult time.

Re: Joy is at peace now
I am so very sorry. She certainly was a ray of sunshine and the kind of person who drew people to her because of her warm personality. She is resting in peace.
