What a blessing it was to meet you. You were an inspiration to all who knew you. You may be gone but you will never be forgotten. May you rest in peace my wonderful friend. I will miss you always.

Joyce: Last year, on June 7, 2013, your dear husband John called to tell me my beloved father, James A. Brown, had been found dead in his home. I was beyond devasted. When I came home to Beaumont for his wake there was a sea of faces of the groups daddy had belonged too, then I heard it!!!---the sound of the most familiar laugh I had known since childhood--yours!!! I kew I was home and safe!!

You and John had cared for daddy took him to appointments, etc without complaints. You comforted me and my brother throught our ordeal with grace and cheer. I have known you since I was 10, I baby sat Brent and Jan, and loved to see what you have crafted next. You had decorations for every season or event--a fairyland house for all the neighbors to enjoy--but your laugh was the best of all.

You advised daddy to tell me to join the Red Hats--to live life and enjoy every adventure. Well, dear Lady I have my red hat and have planned some adventures of my own thanks to you.

Tell mom and daddy I am doing ok thanks to my brother. Heaven is ringing with the joy you scatter everywhere you go!!! Thank you God for sharing your beloved angel Joyce with so many needy soules on this earth!
