Joyce has been diagnosed with leukemia and is doing better.  She would like to come to the reunion but isn’t sure at this time.  She has a computer but doesn’t know how to use it.  She will ask her son to get her on the website.  She sounded excited to have the opportunity to find out about her old friends.  Pray for her.

Apr 6, 2004 - Mom is no longer in pain with her cancer. God called her home April 2, 2004. 

Her Son, Tim Pearce
