Joyce, born on October 9, 1969, embodied love and compassion throughout her life. As the youngest of three siblings, she exuded care and generosity, touching the lives of all who knew her. With a warm heart, she welcomed everyone, embracing diversity without hesitation. Her professional journey led her through various kitchen roles, notably at Moore's Country Store, before dedicating herself to nurturing as a childcare provider for 12 years.

Her legacy of love and empathy will be cherished by all who were fortunate enough to know her.
Those left to cherish Joyce's memory include her sister Louanne Burris and her husband First Sergeant Charles Burris of the Marine Corps.
