Oh my gosh I have only just seen this notice . So sad to hear of Joy's passing and wow in her 100th year. Sending many loving wishes to you all at this sad time. A very strong loving lady now at rest. She always had a lovely smile every time we met and I know that all of her family will have wonderful memories of sweet Joy. Thinking of you all with a heavy heart. Fondest love to you all. Sue and Kevin Bonnington.xx

Alan & Raynor thank you for allowing us the privilege to contribute to this list, from the Gold Coast, Aust. Both Joy & Ken became an important part of our life due to Andrew & Kay's generously including us as friends. Glenn untangled our Internet & Alan's cognitive decline issues and watched the service with us. We all were encouraged by Minetta, Patsy, and Jodi's reminisces. You 3 displayed fine qualities inherited from Grandma. We have excellent memories of superb company on the Island with Joy and Ken. Scrabble with Joy, Fish and negotiating fishing rights with Politicians stories with Ken ['The Whitest Man on the Coast']; Scuba diving with Andrew, exploration in the bush, retrieving honey from the hive, cruising to the outlying islets in the Poppa and negotiating the Pass dodging 'WillyWaws'. Your family educated us! We appreciated both Les and Andrew's positive reveal of Joy's Bible based expectation of God's promises, today. She has our admiration of her Loyalty to spiritual values life long. Love to all the family members. Keep your ears open for - [Job 14:14,15] "you will call and I will answer".

Thank you for making it possible to join Aunty Joy’s service online from Australia She was a lovely person and I know you ; my cousins and the greater family will miss her I hadn’t seen her for years until the reunion and yes, she was just as I had remembered her Much love and thoughts to you all Elaine Angove (Hope)

A sad occasion but sweet memories. So want to meet Joy as a twenty year old she was almost always fun to be around. My deepest sympathy and Christian love to the family at this time. Eion.

Such a beautiful lady. She always had a strong youthful spirit that burned so brightly and never seemed to grow dimmer, unfortunately her body was not so immortal. When she is resurrected she will have a body that matches her spirit. I know Jehovah will have no trouble remembering her even her initials will make it easy J. A. H. I remember her as a person who always made you feel special, and welcome and embraced in her warm love even when she was around her much loved family. Thoughts and prayers at this difficult time for her beautiful family. Might be able to have some time to catch up on quiz knowledge before you meet her again. 😪❤️🌻

A real privilege to be able to attend by link up and hear about sister Joys wonderful ways & her life beautiful service by Les and insights from Andrew wonderful choice of song so strengthening such a meaningful prayer from Peter really enjoyed the expressions from the 'girls' just loved it there is definitely something missing from your family now till Jesus calls "come on out Joy" our warmest love Gina & Robin

A wonderful lady I first met at Pioneer School back in 1993. A grandmother to many she was related to in faith. Such a great example. Much love and sympathy to all her family and good friends who have given her so much support for so long. Sending love, Rochelle Radcliffe (née Simpson)

Dear Hope family, we send our condolences, and lots of hugs and love from Toren, Brigida and Connor O’Donnell

Im so sorry I can’t be with you all today as you celebrate the life of your wonderful , strong charactered muma, Nana , great and even great great.. I can immediately go back to wonderful childhood days at Deep Bay and the excitement when your “lot “ ccame from Coppermine to see Grandpa . The hugs and jolliness of those times are mine to treasure. Aunty Joy was very accepting of us all and stayed interested in me and mine always. I am sure she will leave a big gap for many as our precious “oldies” do. Much love 💕 Chris Macadam (Hope)

My Beautiful Great Nana Joy, I’ve written this out like 20 times but the I just can’t find the words. Today we lay you to rest and it still doesn’t seem real, I can hear your voice saying my name the way only you do. The memories I have, I will hold until the day we meet again, you were always very special, to not only me but to everyone, family and friends. As much as I wish we could all be there to say goodbye, I wish more that we had a chance to bring the kids back and meet you. My biggest inspiration has always been Nana Lin, but as the years have gone on, and the more I see you in her, I realise she gets her courage, strength, and determination from you. I love you so much.

Loving thoughts extended to all Joy's family. An amazing woman and an amazingly wonderful life. I treasure the photos of her enjoyment at the 2013 family reunion. A Blessed life.

To my dear cousins, much love to you all at this time. I have special memories of Auntie Joy with her non judgemental attitude and that wicked sense of humour. May she go well. Love Sue

We have many happy memories of staying with ‘auntie’ Joy both on D’urville Island and in Nelson. Truely a wonderful lady. All our love to you all. Graeme and Jane

You really were a Joy to know! I have my memories of you and Tabitha and your lovely garden and your amazing life. I know you'll be up there in heaven. Peace be with you Joy. Lyn

Our sympathy to Lynley, Gary, Lance, Andrew and families. You will all have many lasting memories to share during this time. For us, we have special thoughts of our most senior Aunt and her lovely disposition. Richard and Clare
