Elgin, Rick, Greg and families we are so heartbroken to hear of Joyce’s passing. We have so many wonderful memories of her to cherish. Joyce always had a smile on her face…her smile is forever etched in our hearts. Love to all
Condolences and prayers for Joyce’s family and friends. I did not have the privilege of meeting Joyce, but I knew of her as Christine’s sweet grandma who was dearly loved by all. May she RIP. 😥
My very faithful friend Joyce Cosby, I have not ever met a person who always, no matter the circumstances had a very positive attitude. You never heard my friend complain. She was my sister in Christ. I will miss her so much. It is comforting to know that one day she will be waiting for me in heaven. My condolences to Elgin and Greg and the rest of the Family. I pray God will comfort you and give you strength through this sad time. I love you Joyce.
I met Joyce when she worked at the Dominion Store at the Pen Centre in the early 70’s. I lived near there and she was my checkout lady. When she came to Jubilee I recognized her. She was always smiling and loved a good laugh. We will miss her greatly but look forward to seeing her in heaven where we will surely be smiling. Our condolences to Elgin. Rick, Greg and their families.
