My deepest condolences to the family on the passing of Joyce. She was a dear friend. We met in 9th grade and was a cherished friend for the past 50 years. She was kind and sweet and had a sense of humor that brightened our lives. She will truly be missed.
I am comforted though, because I know she was a believer in Jesus. We were Sisters In Christ. We often prayed together for each other and for others. I was truly blessed to have her in my life. I know it is not goodbye forever. We will meet again in Heaven. ✝️

To the Wilper Family,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Joyce. I went through grade school and high school with Joyce and she was a sweet person who will be remembered. You now have a guardian angel to watch over you. My thoughts and prayers go out to you.
Rest in peace my long time friend. Dave and Laura so sorry for your loss. I hope you find comfort that she is no longer in pain. And we will all meet again and be free. Hugs
To Dave, Laura, and family.
We are so very sorry for your loss. Joyce was such a great neighbor and friend to us. We had many laughs with her over the years. She will definitely be remembered and truly missed. Our thoughts and prayers will continue to be with you and your family.
Joyce was such a bright spirit. I will miss her. I remember all the visits for family reunion’s and how she always took a beer when my mom offered. They were quite a pair together. Laura – David be at peace that she is resting with our Lord and no longer suffering. She will always be with you. All my love.
Dave, Laura and family, as Joyce is now resting in the arms of Jesus. May you remember the warmth and love she had for her family and others through her life on earth. Together let us all now celebrate her new life in heaven. We are holding you in our thoughts and prayers. Bob and Peggy McGartland
