We were so sad to hear of Aunt Joy's passing. We are full of fun memories of visiting when coming to Missouri. What a gracious lady and always had room for more people at her table and she filled that table with some wonderful country cooking. We know how much she will be missed but know she is at her new wonderous place in heaven. We are unable to attend services but we send our love and prayers to you all. Bob and Marilyn.
