— Elizabeth Coutts, September 3, 2009Dear Jim and family, It is with both sadness for the loss of a sweet friend, and happiness for her new found peace and comfort that I write this. Joyce was there for me several times over the years with quiet pearls of wisdom and encouragement, which were very much appreciated. She didn't always have much to say, but made her words count. She was loved by many, and as I remember her today, more than one smile has snuck up on me...especially when recalling many years ago as we shared a flight to Montreal together,for a Fantasia weekend. When asked what she collected, her answer to me...was dust bunnies...loved you Joyce, sincere and unpretentious, and just a little bit mysterious...Sue and John xo
— Sue McLaughlin, September 2, 2009Our thoughts are with you at this very trying time.
— , January 1, 2010Jim and family, I am so sorry to hear of Joyce's passing. From what little I knew of her she was a remarkable woman. I will never forget how kind and comfortable she made me feel in her presence. Truly a gentle spirt who will be missed by the many people whose lives she touched. May you all find comfort in the memories of Joyce which will live on each of you for years to come.

— Sal Allen, August 31, 2009Please accept my sympathies on the passing of Joyce. I did not know her, but my father Merv Weber, who also suffers from the horrible life with scleroderma, has spoken about Joyce. They conncected with each other regarding scleroderma.
