Our condolences to all of your family. Joyce was a grad lady, always had her hair, nails, clothes look so good on her. I visited her weekly in the hospital and we had wonderful memories of the olden days, her parents worked very hard to make a living, picking berries, etc. for the market, hauling wood out of the bush and she said it was hard times, but they were good, everyone cared and looked after each. We made many dozens of cabbage rolls and perogies at St. Michaels church. We will miss her, she was ready to go, may she rest in peace. - Posted by: Angela & Melvin Zalevich (Faithful friend) on: Jan 27, 2026
