Memaw, Mamaw, Aunt Joyce and of course, MaMa, as she was known to family members, touched the lives of many. She was a strong willed but loving woman. No one loved boiled crabs more than she did, nor make a pot of homemade seafood gumbo like her. She loved her family and her friends. She will be missed by all who knew and loved her, but never forgotten, she will live on forever in our hearts and souls.
