To Kevin and Joyce's family, I am so sorry. Joyce and I had a special bond as friends. I will miss her. She was so goofy, sometimes, that all I had to do was look at her and I would have to laugh. She made me happy! I'm so sorry she's gone.
This beautiful person left some beautiful memories for each of us. God bless her.

To my 2nd family and more so my bestie for life Chrissy. Life won't be the same without mamma J in it, but we all have so many memories of her. She has impacted so many lives while she was here, the stories alone will keep her alive in our hearts. I'm so sorry she had to go this soon, but I'm sure she has a much better purpose with God.
Love, Joe & Wendy Koons
