Joy Tamara Kleiber aka "Danger” was a loving daughter, granddaughter, niece, cousin, and friend. Joy had an amazing fighting and loving spirit that will live on with everyone who knew her. She was a true Joy.
Joy was a special gift and blessing who was born on December 4, 1994 in Amberg, Germany. Joy Tamara unexpectedly left this earth at the young age of 24, in Warner Robins, Georgia on Friday, September 13, 2019.
She had a heart of gold and an independent mind. She never gave up no matter what was presented to her. She loved watching the weather channel and sports and especially loved supporting the Florida Gators. She enjoyed math, playing Uno and games, doing arts and crafts, and listening to music. Her teddy bears and fish had a special place in her heart. She enjoyed visiting new places.
