Joyce you will be so missed. I have all of those gorgeous ornaments that you gave out and they light up our home. Every time I turn it on, I remember the light of hope that you brought to all of us at Newsong Church. I will always remember how many shoes you had and all the gorgeous jewelry you wore. You always looked like a million dollars! When you decided you had too many shoes, you gave me your shoes and that was so special. Now you are walking in those high heels again and dancing with the Lord. I will always remember you.

I had the honor of meeting Frank and Bea only once, many years ago, when we were invited out to have lunch at the Paramount Lounge with Rick and Susan. I remember them both as kind, generous, and hard working people, the type of people you would be proud to call your parents. I know that Bea has gone through a rough couple of years, and take solace in knowing that she is no longer suffering, and in a better place. To all of Bea’s family, my wife and I offer our sincerest condolences.
