Our deepest symparhy to the Johnstone family on the passing of their beloved mother Joyce.Unfortunatly we never had the pleasure to meet Joyce but we felt like we knew her through the  many stories Murray and Myrna shared  after their many telephone calls and visits with her. The love she had for her children, grandchildren and friends and her love of God. May Joyce  rest in internal peace. Our hearts and prayers to the entire Johnstone family. There is no other love better then the love a mother feels for her family. Jerry and Melanie Ozubko Calgary, Alberta
