Greetings: I'm very sorry for your loss. I went through a similar situation and I was very helped by the hope that I found in the Bible in John 5:28, which says, "Do not amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out". I am sending you a link with more information on this hope.

Joyce's smile and laugh always lightened up a gathering at our get togethers.
She will be missed by all....our condolences to Bob and the entire family.
A loved one lost can grieve the heart, but find comfort in the following words from our Heavenly Father: " And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." Revelation 21:4.
My sincerest sympathy to the Burke Family. May you find comfort from God, family and friends during this difficult time. 2 Corith. 1:3, 4

Joyce was as good as you could get. To all the Burkes, I am sorry for your loss and thank you for sharing your Mom and Wife thru the years. It was a privilege to know such a classy lady.
I was so sorry to hear about Joyce's passing.
She was my best friend and neighbor.
We hit it off from the start, and we had many years of laughs and happy times!
She was the one I called when I needed someone to talk to.
I will always cherish her friendship.
My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to Bob and family.
She was a great person and will be missed by all.
I miss her already, but I know she is in a better place now.
She will be in my prayers always.
