Forever missed reminded me of the anniversary of Joyce's birthday via internet today. A fine and great lady who will be forever missed. I know you miss her so much. She certainly loved life and did not let it pass her by.

I am sorry to hear of Joyce passing away. I have lost touch. Apparently she was in a nursing home in Oxford. I assumed she still lived in Wake Co. near Noel, who has apparently moved to Va. I hope she was in good health mentally and physically. I remember her golf exploits at Thorndale CC as well as her nursing ability. She was born the same year as Bennie. My condolences to you all.

I saw Joyce's obituary come up on forever missed today.  I remember that Joyce was women's  club champ at Thorndale for many years.  Having taken up golf as an adult I can identify with what a difficult sport golf is.  To do it well is quite an accomplishment.  She was quite a lady.
