I have been speechless for a few days and now I speek but I can't seem to find the words to describe what a wonderful person La Joyce was. As a couple her and Charlie was an excellent exampe of marrage. Her beautiful children is evidence of her awsome nurturing motherhood. The generosity of her heart is spoken of her work in her church and community. But one thing that stands out more than anything, and that was her Joy for life, desplayed by that beautiful smile. We will remember that SMILE.........That SMILE will be etched on our minds forever.........
