Dear Bill & Carol, I am so sorry for your loss of Joyce. Prayers were sent for comfort & strength for you & your family. Also asked God that the memories of family joy, laughter & love to always be the first thing that comes to your minds when you think of Joyce. And finally Bill, I really wasn't sure you deserved such a 'hot' sister. I know - I'm sad. But the truth is the truth. Sincerely, Doug Danko
