My condolences dear family, and many happy memories of Joyce be with you. And may these promises from Jehovah God bring you true solace. “Do not be anxious….but in everything by prayer and supplication along with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God; and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7; Isaiah 25:8 NWT.
Sincerely,
