The family would like to thank Joyce’s niece, Heather Barrows, and great-niece, Annalee Barrows, for the special care they provided for Joyce.

Along with her parents, Joyce was preceded in death by an infant daughter, Monica Star Summers; an eight-year-old daughter, Laura Summers; and a brother-in-law, Mike McClain.
