One of Joy’s favorite things was to spend time with all of her family and friends at Martins Lake. It was very important to her to put on a good meal for the family and share company amongst each other. She took great pride in her grandboys and always made sure they had lots of love and care when she was with them. Her other favorite place was St. Petersburg, FLA. Where her and Franklin spent many winters, met lots of new friends and liked to host visitors throughout her time there.
