I heard Joyce's name mentioned in my home as far back as I can remember.  My mother (Thelma White Horn) was a lifelong friend of Joyce's - over 80 years.  They first met as children in 1929 in the Imperial Valley when the Schmitts and Whites were neighbors.  No matter the distance between them, they always kept in touch.  I have a special memory of my mother, her sister, Phyllis, and Joyce spending time together for Joyce's 85th birthday.  I would like to extend heartfelt condolences to Colette, Duane, Ruth and the entire family.  I hope it comforts you to know that caring thoughts are with you as you remember Joyce and the joy she brought to others.

Mrs. Freeman (Joyce) was like a second mother to me!  I met her when I was seven years old, and a classmate of her daughter, Colette.  We have remained close, even though we live in different areas.  Just this past June, I visited with her & Joyce and we had lunch together! I am so grateful for the all the good times we shared!!  She always had a bright smile for me!!

My heartfelt condolences to the family of this wonderful woman. I have been gone from the area for many years and had lost contact with the family but have many fond memories of the years spent with Colette and her parents Joyce and Buck.
