Saving her little brother

To all of my loving sister's family,

I attached this photo of Joyce and me, as this was my first day of school and riding a school bus. Being a new student riding a bus, I was picked on by some of the other kids, until my sister stepped in and in no uncertain terms told the bullies to leave me alone. Joyce married when I was about 11 yrs old, and moved to Mississippi with her husband as he was in the Air Force. I spent the next summer with Joyce and her husband taking care of her first born, Steve, while she worked. After that we never saw  much of each other as I attended college in Colorado and settled there. It was years in between visits and we were both busy with our lives. The last time I saw her was in August of 2016. I am sure she will be missed by you all as she will be missed by me. Joyce is free now of any suffering or worry as I am sure she is with Jesus. For this I am thankful and that she was my sister.
