Joyce cared for my mother Natalie in 2010-11. She was a gift to my mother, as well as to me and my brothers. She tenderly cared for her at the end of her life and was with me when she passed. I will forever be grateful for her kindness, her expertise and beautiful, calming spirit. I've thought of her often. I'm so sorry for your loss - my heart is with you. May your memories bring you peace & comfort.
