    I have 2 great memiries of Joyce! I am Rosemary McLeod, I am a retired LPN from Outlook LTC. First one: Its Lunch time and I go down to her room to get her. Another staff member is trying to get her to come out and Joyce really didnt want to go to dining. It during covid to I have a mask on. I greet her and ssy Why dont yoy come with me. She Looks at me smiles and tells me I have nice eyes grabs my arm and came to the dining room with me. She stole my heart right in that moment. The second one was a week before I retired. It was after lunch and she came around the corner out of the dining room towards her room. She stops at my med cart smiles at me. I greet her and ask if she is going back to her room. She stood there with a smile so I continued doing was I had been doing poping meds into cup. I feel this cane tap me on my butt, I turn to her and she has this great big smile on her face and says "I like you" and she continued down the hall to her room. Two great memories I will always remember her for!
