My deepest sympathy to the Mullins Family. May God be with Joyce on her eternal journey. I know that her brothers and sisters will especially be at a loss. My thoughts are of your comfort, pain pushes the limits of the living. The last page of a chapter is the hardest to turn. God be with you all! A lifelong friend, J. Darrell Kirkley
What an honor that Joyce was a part of my life. A dear friend. I enjoyed her and Wiley’s company. We meet when Heartland was started. She knew how much I appreciated her tireless work for the organization. Our lives are who we find dear in them. She was a joy to be around. She will always be a part of who I am.
I remember years ago when my mom Esther was on a bowling league with Joyce. Those were some happy times in my mom’s life. Mom is in Longview now in a nursing home. Harold and I have know Joyce and Wiley for a very long time. We are both so very sorry for your loss and will pray for you family for the days and weeks to come as you take your journey through grief. May God bless your family during this time.
