Sincere condolences to the Young family. I didn’t have the privilege of meeting Joyce, but do know the pain of losing someone you love dearly. Please find comfort in knowing that our loving Creator, Jehovah, really cares for you, and will soon swallow up death forever and wipe the tears from all faces Isaiah 25:8.
