I was saddened to read of Joy's passing in today's newspaper. I called on Joy at Farmer's Bank when I sold checks for Harland Company. She was my main contact there and we got to know each other well. I valued our working friendship. I ran into her at Ulta about a year ago and we got to visit and catch up with each other a little bit. I'm so glad for that. Please know that the family is in my thoughts and prayers.
Forever in our Hearts - Love Sandie
I will miss you for every and always. Thank you for allowing me to take care of you in your final days. The conversations will be remembered with sorrow, with joy and with laughter. Your strength and grace was unbending during this time as it always was. I am blessed to have you as mother. Give Daddy and John a hug for me. I miss you forever and love you always. With respect, admiration and love.....for ever. I love you, Mom. Your daughter, Jo.
