Joyce was a crossing guard for 25 years at the corner of A and OO before it expanded to a major road. She knew every student and family passing thru "her corner". Joyce didn't like having her hands idle so she always was working on some kind of craft project, crocheting or stitching. Holidays were always family time and she looked forward to seeing her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
