Your 10th year brought us toward the end of pandemic. You missed pandemics in your lifetime. Still a lot of uncertainty, but most people helped protect themselves and others. Most importantly ..listened to advice (like you used to give freely)! Still miss you; but not so much the noisy "Christmas to your birthday clock". For another year anyway

Can't believe it's been 10 years since we heard your laugh. I think about you a lot, I see you in my daughter everyday with her fire that you gave us. I wish you could have met her, you would have been over the moon. I miss your lessons, having sleepovers at your place on the weekends, going to the flea market and garage sales with you. Having our coffee talks. I tell many people about you, and hie you were so strong and the head of our family. Christmas has never really been the same since you've been gone. I know you're only just in the next room. One day we will meet again. Xoxo forever missing you

Wow...10 years yesterday. It's really hard to believe it's been that long. I'm grateful that there's a place for friends and family to come to and leave a note or share a story. I'm actually thankful that you weren't here Mom, during Covid. The restrictions would have been so hard for you...unbearable probably. I wish Kel had more time with you to have more memories but I'm also grateful for the pictures. Thinking of you always...

I see it's time to bring the musical Christmas clock out again/still. Remember? It doesn't get put back till your birthday? Some, after awhile find every hour on the hour annoying, with a song each time..... that's part of the fun, isn't it?! Well, isn't it?? Keep looking down Joy. We keep looking up...miss you buddy. and The Big Kahoona

It's hard to believe that Joy has been out of my life for 4 years now. I still get a shock when I see another lady on the street who reminds me of Joy. I know she comes to visit when my special solar light comes on.
I will miss you forever Joy.

Joy Shone Light Wherever She Went!
August 13, 2019
Hi Selena
I am Kathleen, also known as Kathy. I was scouring Facebook today and decided to search for Joy. I am shocked to read she has passed at such a young age, how tragic.
Your Mom use to style my hair and my sister's when we resided on Vcr. Island. I moved from Nanaimo 10 years ago now.
You may remember me and Hans, Hans built the windmill for your Mom. I love the photo of your Mom and daughter standing near the windmill; all of the photos are touching and bring back fond memories of your Mom and family. ..
Joy would make me laugh from my belly, she was blunt, honest , jovial , loving and would give you a piece of her mind when need be. Your Mom loved life, her family and enjoyed everyday to the fullest. What a beautiful woman in many ways. Our condolences to you and your families. Hans and Kathleen (Kathy) van Voorn

Joy, I miss you everyday!!! You were the flame and all your friends were the moths that were drawn to you. You took me under your wing and made me feel like I was a part of your family. You were the sister that I never had. We could talk about everything and anything, so many laughs and tears were shared. It has been a difficult year for your family and friends but we are going forward. You will never be forgotten and will be in our hearts forever. I will have a glass of our Friends wine tonight to toast your life and all the great people that you touched with your love, friendship and your caring soul. A kiss to you my best friend.
