Miss Joy was an amazing woman. I feel privileged to have known her. She was able to find redeeming qualities in anyone, even me. All she required of me was that I was a friend of Scott's. She had the ability to cut right through the BS, and tell you so in such an honest and forthright manner, that you could not begrudge her. I appreciated her love of the simple things in life, and her ability, which she has passed on to her son Scott, to tell a truly hilarious tale. She was a woman who did not need to stand on pretense, and the world will be a much more formal and artificially contrived place without her. I will miss her greatly, however, I will find consolation in a continued relationship with her son, my best friend, whom I believe is imbued with all of her finer characteristics ! Love, Brian
