Joyce was a "First Class and Gorgeous Person."  Whoever set this up, I am eternally grateful to you.  Thank you again.  Joyce I miss you!! Miriam

I was just wondering about Joyce and searched her name. So sad to know that she passed several years ago.  I worked with her at Bloomingdales in the executive office  in the 80’s - we had a ball!  I was invited to her home in Brooklyn where she prepared her Mom’s Mustard Chicken.  Delicious.

She was a beautiful girl - always looked fantastic.  Wasen’t afraid of anything - she went too soon!  Miss you Joyce.  



Unfortunately, I found out much too late that you had left us.   We had some good times together.  Rest in peace, my friend.  You will be missed.
Love, Beverly (Mile)

Here's a photo of a visit Joyce made back to her old stomping grounds of Brooklyn Heights. That's Bob & Brenda Pepper in the middle and me on the right. What fun we all had together! So glad to have these memories of the incomparable Joyce. Thank you, Joyce!

Bless you, Joyce! We had good times together in our Revlon years. You are greatly missed. Rest In Peace, Girlfriend!

Oh Joyce, hearing of your passing has made me so sad. We had such fun and so many laughs. I remember Freddy Jackson and Luther Vandross concerts and, most of all, our amazing trip to Washington, DC. Visiting your friends, touring, shopping, and me running up the steepest, tallest, broken down escalator to get to a bathroom, with you following behind picking up all the stuff I was dropping. I'm laughing now just thinking about it! I can't thank you enough for saving me from being arrested for yelling at an Officer at the Pentagon City train stop. We took so long the trains had stopped running and they actually sent one back just for us! You were a fierce, stylish, amazing force and I have missed you and will continue to miss you.

I just was informed that this very kind, fun loving friend passed away. I am so sorry that you will no longer light up the world with your laugh and beautiful smile. I have such great memories of our trip to Paris many years ago. I only wish we had done more things together. I will miss you but know yu will be with your mum in a better place.

we will always have Paris. I Love you Joyce

Joyce, Fire Island, our first Cruise, drinking wine until late in the night laughing, talking and just enjoying life. I will miss you my friend but I will never forget you. Rest in Pease Joyce.

Joyce, Thanks for all the outrageous, oversized memories with you looking for diamond rings in Soho, Flamenco dancing, your King Kong face, BratDoll talk, Hot Bus Driver if only he'd keep his mouth shut, Bloomingdale's Parties, our long shared renovation, & Boisterous stoop-sits... you were one in a million!  We are so blessed to have been you & Rudy's landlords in Bklyn. & to have  known you so well. We miss you.  Bob & Brenda Pepper

Your the Lady of ladies.  The Laugh that made me giggle.  The Voice that said I'm here.  Your at peace and that is my peace. Keep the heavens uplifted with your smile.  Always in my heart. Nicole

Joyce, what fun I had with you. Getting together meant good food, music, laughs and more laughs. Your impeccable style was inspiring and your photography reflected your great taste.   Will miss our talks very much.

Joyce, your smile and laughter were contagious.  You have touched so many of us. You will truly be missed.

Sure going to miss you Joyce. I'll never forget our fun trips to Miami....your laugh will always echo in my mind.  So sorry you are gone.

Joyce was such a feminine and warm woman who was a joy to be around.  I will miss your girly ways and awesome photography.  May God hold you safely in his arms in Heaven...we will truly miss you here on Earth.

:(  So sad!  You always made me laugh... :( Except now!

 You were always such a "girly-girl" and the only wildlife photographer I know who would never stray from the path and still obtain marvelous photos!
I will miss your laugh and your "faces".
