Happy Birthday Mom - I went with friends to dinner tonight and we raised our glasses to you and sang you the birthday song. I miss you so much, I think about you every day and wish I could talk to you again. I know your there but it is harder than I thought not getting to see you or hear your voice. Know you are loved and missed with all my heart. Love you = Dawn

Mike, I am truly sorry for your loss. Your mom was very kind to me when I probably didn't deserve it. She was very supportive and understanding. She truly has a special place in the heart of God. Joyce your the best. Mike lots of love to you and your family. God's love is truly comforting all of you.

I know she is up there watching - and how proud she is of all of us. I am sure we will have some rough times missing her but her love will carry us through them. I thank God that He saw fit to bless our lives with the fun and craziness of life with her - that he gave me a real Momma and a grandma for our girls. Mom - I miss you so much, your empty chair is so hard to look at, your empty room is too quiet and dark. I hope you know how much I love you and I hope you knew it while you were here. I will do my best and try to keep the flame burning that you started and left for all of us. I love you Mom

Mike I am sorry for your loss.

Mike, I'm with you, brother, in spirit. Love you.

Joyce I'm going to miss you I really loved taking care of you I know you are in heaven now , and your in no more pain , amen love you lots .

Sweetie, I am so sorry for the loss of your MOM. I loved Aunt Joyce as long as I can remember. I have always treasured the time I lived with you two on 18th street. You will always be in my heart. Love you bunches.

Sorry for your loss, Mike. I remember when your mom taught me when frying fish to put an unlit match in the oil and when it flared then the oil was hot enough. That was fun! She also told me at Peppermint Annie's to step up and play drums with conviction. Drive the band and make them follow me. She said "Don't be scared! Play them drums like you mean it!". I still try to heed her advice.
