No words can express how saddened I was at hearing the news of Joyce's death. I only wish i could be there to say good bye. Joyce was a special person that all the family dearly loved. She was so kind to Mom (Wanda) and Grandma (Margaret Hershiser) and was there they needed her. May God bless her soul and comfort you in your loss. My prayers are with all of you.

Dear Nina and Anthony,
I met your mom more about 13 yrs ago when she helped me find my first house. I was going through a lot of personal, difficult issues at the time. Joyce was a person who could "read" others. She never intruded but let me know she would listen and not judge. When she sold my 1st house and helped with purchasing the 2nd (I trusted Joyce's business savvy and integrity) she joined me by celebrating and we shared a bottle of wine!!! I will never forget that.
Joyce was a ray of sunshine even when Life's weight was heavy on her shoulders.
I pray that God eases your burden and you always remember your wonderful times together. She mentioned you in every conversation that we had. Without a doubt she is with the angels.

I am a neighbor from Northern Pine. I babysat Nina and Anthouny many times. Joyce was a lovely, fun-loving, friend and neighbor. I know from experience, losing a mother at such a young age leaves an empty place in your life. Let the memories live on in your heart. My prayers are with you.

Although I never got the chance to meet your mom, I am sure she was a beautiful and caring person, you can see that by looking at who her children are today. May she forever be your angel that watches over you always. Our hearts go out to the two of you in this difficult time. May God bless you and your family as you turn to Him when you need Him most. You are in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless you.

I was devistated to read about Joyce. My heart goes out to her whole family. Joyce was a wonderful friend during our high school days. We even road to OSU together during our freshman year. I lost contact with her for a long period of time until I began to sell Real Estate a few years ago. It was so nice to see her occasionally at meetings. I always admired Joyce for her calm & warm personality. My prayers are with you all.

I went to H.S. with Joyce. She dated my cousin, Jack Baker for a long time. Joyce was such a wonderful, sweet, and kind girl. I enjoyed just being aroung her! Her smile was so inviting.
I haven't seen her in years, but I know those who had been with her in these past years was truly blessed.
Please know that my prayers are with all of you, and know that Joyce is at peace.

I learned of what happened to Joyce, just yesterday (1/1/08). The circumstances of her death disturbs me greatly. Joyce and I spoke on the phone on numerous occasions over the past forty years, but unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to meet her children. Having lost both my wife and my son in the past thirteen years, I can imagine what they must be feeling. About all I can offer, is my hope that they can find happiness throughout their adult lives. So very sorry.
