So nice to meet you on the parade route today. Your Easter goodies are all so sweet.

I read your bio and I was touched with your story. As you continue to draw closer to the Lord, may He continue to cover you with His love and provide all your needs.

I lost my Dad last August. I rest in the assurance that my Dad is now with the Lord and at peace.

Happy Easter, Blessings!

Hello there! I'd like to introduce myself..... My name is Joyce and I live in northern California, in the beautiful San Joaquin Valley. In 1975, I was blessed by God with a wonderful man named Stephen. Whether or not you believe in such a thing, ours truly was "love at first sight". We were married one year later. In time, we were further blessed with 5 beautiful children, four boys and one girl. Steve was my rock, my protector, my soul mate, and my best friend. We spent 30 precious years on this earth together, and for this I give thanks each and every day of my life. Sadly, my dear Steve passed away in December of 2005. He was such a strong spirit and loving soul that I know he is still here, loving and watching over us.
