I'm just learning of her transition. I'm so sorry and offer my sincerest condolences. Wonderful and funny lady! We worked together for years and saw each other a lot less as we began working remote at Xerox. I remember sharing great stories of our kids and later our grandkids. 

I started with PWC (later bought by Xerox) at the same time (1998) and on the same team as Joyce. We faced many challenges with the new and growing organization in Cary and had many laughs as well.
God bless.

My deepest sympathy goes out to the whole family. I worked much closer with Joyce when I was on a prior client and I would hear so much about all of her children. She was so proud of you all. She was a wonderful caring person and I learned so much from her. She was not just a co-worker but a friend at Xerox. My thoughts and prayers go out to John and all the children, spouses and grandchildren. May your memories comfort you! She is at peace in her final resting place.

So sorry for your loss. Joyce was such a sweet friend.

My sincere sympathies go out to Joyce's family. She was a dear friend to me, always there for me when I needed advice on anything from work to family issues. I will miss our almost weekly hours-long conversations on the phone when she had me laughing when I felt like crying. I could call her for anything, and she was always there......  Rest peacefully my friend - I will see you again in heaven.

I was so sorry to hear about Joyce.  We worked together many years at Xerox but since she started working from home, I hadn't seen her in a while. She had a great laugh and was always someone you could talk to.  She will be missed.  My thoughts and prayers go to her family.

We are so sorry for your family's loss. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you. May happy memories be your comfort.

Joyce was pure magic. There's a tear in the universe with her passing. This lovely person.  A great loss to the cosmos!

Joyce was a great friend and colleague.  I have worked with her a very very long time and will miss her terribly.  She absolutely adored Disney, her dogs, the grandkids and children.  She was a wonderful person and I will truly miss her.   My sympathies to her family and all who knew her and whom she touched.  Lauren Jamieson (Cary, NC)

My heart is heavy with sadness to learn of Joyce's passing. I have worked with Joyce for many years at Xerox, and she was a true, kind, genuine person. We often spoke about family, and her love for her children, her husband, her grandchildren and her pets. My world was a better place with Joyce in it. Rest easy, my friend.

Sending my condolences and very sorry to hear of Joyce's passing, a great coworker and friend.

I was so saddened to hear of Joyce's passing.  I worked with her for years at Xerox and whenever I saw her, she always had a smile on her face and was such a wonderful person. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends during this time.

 Joyce, you have a lovely heart and were a wonderful friend. I enjoyed working with you for years at Xerox.  My sincerest condolences to your family and prayers for you to find peace.  Love, Linda

My deepest sympathies to the family for your loss.  Joyce was a friend and co-worker, and we shared many, many conversations about our children and our beloved dogs, over several years of friendship.  She was very proud of all her children and was a true kindred spirit with the animal world.  Sometimes we even talked about work!  I will miss hearing her latest news, and miss hearing her dog bark in the background - seemingly every time she was on the phone :-). She will be greatly missed.

Joyce was an amazing lady. She was a joy to work with and learn from. She will be very much missed and our lives will never be the same. I am heartbroken as I know her family is. She touched so many lives. RIP my friend. Carrie Berkich (her manager at Xerox)
