Great grandchildren Garland Ruggles, Dorothy Ruggles, Ozzie Ruggles, Bennett Davidson, Presley Davidson, Cameron Martin, Willow Martin each of them carries forward memories of her presence, her love, and the lasting place she held in their lives.

Joy was preceded in death by her parents, John and Lucille Moore, whose memory remained part of her story throughout her life.

As her family and friends remember Joy, they honor a woman whose life was marked by devotion, care for others, and faith. She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered.
