My sincere condolences to you Lisa, Amy and family! Your mom was an amazing lady! I remember so much about her and especially her taking good care of us on our sleepovers and putting up with us girls so well! Sending hugs and prayers of comfort. ❤️
Joyce was my cousin and a woman I very much admired. She did not let tragedies overcome her and achieved her goals. She raised 3 wonderful children. I personally have not seen Joyce in a while however I kept up with her through her sisters, Ellene and Lynette. Rest now my dear friend. Enjoy glory and being reunited with your family. I shall miss you. ❤️🙏

If you had any educational contact with her, you learned from the best. She helped me out soooo much, she hired me and she believe in me so much that she talk me into going back to college 😂.


Such good memories with Joyce Steele over the years. She leaves quite a legacy for her family. Her inspiration for learning will stay with us always. May her strength and the strength of the Lord be with her family during this time. Rest in peace Ms. Steele….
Joyce taught my daughter at Endy, and later became my Principal at West Stanly. She made sure I had the materials that I needed to complete my journey in the classroom unlike others who said we had no funds.
Love and blessings to the family.
