Auntie Joyce was always so endearing, loving and gentle One of the sweetest women I’ve known may you REST IN PEACE❤️
Where do I begin, still so hard to believe. ? For as long as I can remember Aunt Joyce has been the sweetest and most kind woman, beautiful inside and out. A woman of great virtue and faith. She always spoke about the goodness of God and didn’t hesitate to pray over you. Auntie you are surely missed but your work here on this earth is done. Thank God for allowing us to have you for so many years but I guess he needed his Angel back. Uncle Charlie, Tammy and Brian my heart goes out to you, know that you have a multitude of family and friends that are praying for you. We love y’all and we will always be here for y’all.♥️♥️
Mother Smithson will surely be miss. I will miss her hugs.
As I read the comments already here, I am so in agreement with each of them.
I have known few people whose presence and personality I would describe as having an angle like quality. Joyce; my dear, sweet, sister-in-law is one of those people. I too thank God for allowing us the privilege of knowing and having such a gentle, beautiful spirt in our lives. Rest gently dear sister. Love you always. You are sorely missed.
Aunt Joyce May you Rest In Peace. Oh how your sole, wise council and encouragement will be missed. I pray some of you resides in me. I’m still in shock about this but I know you suffer no more. Uncle Charlie, Tammy and Brian please know that your loss is my loss too. May the prayers, caring words and strong shoulders of others comfort you all at this time. God picked a beautiful flower to adorn heaven. I like you, will forever carry Aunt Joyce in my heart. RIP Auntie
McCral (Charlie), Tammy & Brian, you know my heart is with you, as is the rest of the family, I’m sure. I too am in total agreement with all the comments previously expressed and I certainly do feel that your wife / mom (Joyce) had a soul that was right with God and that she will be with Him in the day of resurrection. I pray we all will see her again at that time. She truly was a jewel! I continue to be here for whatever I can do for you, my family. May God bring you, and us (other family) comfort and peace. Love, Sister/Aunt Shirley
To the Smithson family, Charlie & Joyce was in my life when i was a young woman. They always welcome me with kindness & loving arms. Tammy & Brian my heart goes out to all of you. I know God will give you comfort & peace.
To the Smithson Family, I am sorry to hear of your loss. To lose a love is hard but we have a God that sits high and look low. He makes no mistake. You are in my Prayers .
Mama Joyce was truly one of the sweetest most virtuous women I’ve ever met. I’m thankful to have known her. She truly left a legacy of love.
Mother Smithson was such a powerful, loving, and kind woman. Sweet to the core. We always shared wonderful laughs and giggle fits together. She was always taped into the heart of each person she ministered to. What an awesome prayer warrior with out question. Very gentle, but fierce when it was time to battle in the spirit. Wow we have lost a giant in Christ. My prayers to the Smithson Family, Love you all!
