Joyce was known for her huge heart of love for her family. She would help anyone anytime. She was a proud fluent Cherokee speaker. She loved fishing and she could cook some great enchiladas. She made homemade tortillas for years. Back in her younger years, she enjoyed family outings that involved camping, catching crawdads, hunting for blackberries, Poke, and collard greens. She loved her nephews and nieces like they were her own. You'd never see Joyce without a dog. Her last 'kid' was Trey, but she had Queeny and many "Nubbins," literally, several Nubbins.
