Thank you for giving us the opportunity to send our thoughts and memories about your mom, Aunt Joyce.
The early memories we have begin in Beiseker when our family would travel there to see both our grandmothers, aunts and uncles, cousins and whoever was in town. It was always a great visit to see Aunt Joyce and hangout with the cousins.
Aunt Joyce was always there at birthdays, anniversaries and get-together's at mom & dad's place. Aunt Joyce always had something funny to talk about or say. We had many good laughs with her!
Aunt Joyce always welcomed us to their campground in Fort Steele, laughing and smiling. A positive person with all our interactions with our family.
The few times Jeff and Deborah made it to Cranbrook, they called passing through and were always greeted warmly, but she was a busy lady and Deborah only got to meet her once, that was just before Uncle Lawrence passed which was completely understandable.
Aunt Joyce was able to make a trip to Kamloops to see our brother, Michael during his final days in the hospice. We, as a family, felt this was so thoughtful and caring, and so much appreciated. This is how we knew her to be.
Aunt Joyce was a very special lady and we will miss her.
To the family; We know and understand your heartfelt loss. We can only hope Uncle Lawrence and Aunt Joyce are at the same dance that mom and dad are at, having a great time. They will live in your heart's forever.
All our love and hugs to your family for your loss.
The Saunders Family
