Glen, Carroll and I are saddened by the news of Joyce's death. It was really a shock as we are sort of out of the Sour Lake loop. She was a dear sweet friend to us when we lived in Sour Lake and such a faithful member of our church community, Our Lady of Victory. I know that God has received her into His loving arms and will console you in your grief. Cleo and Carroll Martin.
