Joyce Terrell (1953-2012) lived a life that exemplified joyful giving, compassion and sensitivity to the needs of others. She delighted in blessing her children, grandchildren, family members, friends and anyone in need. Her joyful, giving spirit extended to all relationships developed in her lifetime. Joyce was a woman of exceptional strength, perseverance and integrity with a pleasant, up-beat personality. Her beautiful spirit and love for life was endearing to all who had the pleasure of knowing her.
