Dear Roger, Jim, John, and Families,
I am so sorry for your very sad loss at this time. I hope and pray that God will lift up your heart and give each and everyone of you the strength you need each passing day to carry on.
Joyce was a near and dear friend for many years to my mother, Charlotte Lenhoff. Since I was a little boy I can remember their visits together of great caring conversations about their families and much laughter of Joy, which is short for Joyce!
My memories of Joyce are of a very sweet, calm, peaceful, and serenely consistent nature.
My hope and prayers for her and you all are that those great qualities within her have only increased as she rest comfortably waiting for Roger, her sons, and the all of her family and friends whom she loved so much!

May God Bless You All,
Mark Lenhoff ( Son of Charlotte)

I am sorry for the loss of such a great woman. Truly she is one of my all time favorites. Always loved to see her at any event and so loved communicating with her on holidays with cards. Marc loved her too, so much.
He would always remind me to make sure to get a card to send her on holidays.I joked with her that she had perhaps the prettiest handwriting of anyone I know.
My love to all of you. I know you all are suffering a great loss. She loved you all so very much. I will always appreciate having known her and will miss her, too. Love,
Beth

Roger and Family:
I am so sorry for your loss. Even though you were my cousin, I also considered Joyce my cousin too.
We shared a common bond with our birthdays being on the same date, and also our love for corresponding, which we had done for many years. I always looked forward to notes and letters from Joyce and the unusual stamps she put on the envelopes. We will miss her at our annual Diehl Corn Roast. Now Joyce can "rest in peace" and be pain free. She had many medical issues these past few years, but she always told me that she had a positive attitude and that is what carried her along this far. Take comfort in the memories.
Your Cuz, Cindy
