Aunt Joyce will always live in our memories. We always had fun when everybody was together. Now they are together...Joyce, Althea, Shirley and Joe. If we are lucky, one day we will all be together again.

Aunt Joyce will definitely be missed. She was the oldest and the last of our family members that could help each of us to remember all the special times that we shared together. Aunt Joyce and I had something in common. We both enjoyed telling and hearing old stories over and over again. It seemed as though the older the stories became, the more we enjoyed hearing them. We would laugh even more, especially Aunt Joyce. She truly taught us all how to enjoy life and she loved having her family around her whenever she could. Those memories that we hold dear in our hearts will live on forever. I love you and will miss you.Until next time..."GOT YOU LAST"

Thankyou for everything, I love you and good night...Your favorite daughter

I miss you so very much grandma and I look forward to the day when we can spend time together again. You have been more than a grandmother to me. You have always been my best friend, never judgemental, and have always been there for me in everyway. I could not have ever asked for a better grandmother than you.  Thank you God for my wonderful blessing :)

Didn't know grandma Joyce for that long but she was so sweet and nice but still alive in my heart. I miss you :(

In memory of Joyce Cora Bowers:

They are not dead,
Who leave us this great heritage of remembering joy.

They still live in our hearts,
In the happiness we knew, in the dreams we shared.

They still breathe,
In the lingering fragrance,windblown, from their favourite flowers.

They still smile in the moonlight’s silver,
And laugh in the sunlight’s sparking gold.

They still speak in the echoes of the words we’ve heard them say again and again.

They still move,
In the rhythm of waving grasses, in the dance of the tossing branches.

They are not dead;
Their memory is warm in our hearts, comfort in our sorrow.

They are not apart from us, but part of us,

For love is eternal,
And those we love shall be with us throughout all eternity.
Anon

At a time when the heart aches from a loss that can never be dimmished, please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Only had the pleasure of getting to know Joyce as of 2008 and thank her for her part in bringing her grandaughter and my fiancee, Beckie, into my life. I will miss her smart comments about Beckie and how she always made us all smile. God Bless your soul.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
