  1. My heart was so saddened to hear about Joyce’s sudden passing. She was such a precious part of our family all these years. We met when we were just teenagers, when she and Glenn were dating. Although Glenn was first cousin to my daddy, Junnie, he and Jerry and Larry were closer in age to my brothers and me, rather than Daddy’s age. So I just always thought of them as my first cousins on Daddy’s side.

    When we were growing up, we made lots of trips to Seabrook to visit with Uncle Howard and Aunt Marie and their boys. There was always plenty of food to eat, and lots of fellowship with family. Lots of memories were made there.

    Over the years, as kids grow up, they often lose touch with extended family. But Glenn and Joyce were different… They were always there for family. Whether it was a family reunion, a funeral, a wedding, whatever… They were always there representing my daddy’s side of the family.

    And when Lonnie and I married and I moved out here to Lubbock, Texas 30 years ago, Glenn and Joyce kept up with me, and even invited us to the home of his daughter Sandra’s mother and father-in-law, who had been living in Lubbock for a while. We got to meet Vinu and feel a part of their family as the grandbabies came along… Sarah Marie, Ian, and Annie. Joyce and Glenn were so very proud of their family, and never missed a chance to share them with their third cousin, Beverly!

    When Mama (Luella) had her stroke, and I made 27 trips to Houston over that 4-year period of time, whenever we had to get together at Mama’s so she could visit with her family, it wasn’t just our immediate family. It always included Joyce and Glenn. Sure, we had lots of other family members, but we always knew that Joyce and Glenn were more like our brother and a sister when it came to family time.

    Well, I do tend to go on and on, but I just wanted to say how special Joyce and Glenn were in my life. I cannot think of one of them without the other. Joyce’s homegoing will undoubtedly be a source of sadness for Sandra and Rodger and all their family members. But I can’t help but think happy thoughts about the beautiful reunion that took place when Joyce stepped over onto that Golden Shore and she and Glenn were reunited with each other after all this years apart. And, getting to sit down with Jesus, our Lord and Savior who died so that we could spend eternity in Heaven with Him, is the greatest joy of all.

    I am looking forward to eternity of visiting with friends and family, and I know that Joyce and Glenn will be a big part of that family reunion Up There.

    GOD BLESS YOU ALL. ✝️💞🛐

  4. Aunt Joyce, as I have always known her, was such a sweetheart and I am sad for her earthly family but know she is where she wants to be, reunited with Glenn! Condolences, with love and hugs.
