We are deeply saddened by the passing of our beloved Aunt Joy. Her warmth, kindness, and joyful spirit touched the hearts of everyone who knew her. She was a shining light in the family, always ready with a smile and a comforting word. Though she is no longer with us, her love and memories will forever remain in our hearts. May we find strength in each other and peace in the beautiful moments we shared with her. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family during this difficult time.
