A Tribute to our Mother, Joyce Witt Vaughn 08/17/1931 – 12/12/2017 One of the greatest legacies we can leave our family is to model the kind of love that leaves an enduring and everlasting impact upon the lives of others. This tr Read Obituary
What a beautiful tribute to your Mother!. Denise, Donna, Debra and Dana, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. I had the honor and privilege of knowing Joyce about 63 years ago as our families were at Mt. Pisgah Baptist Church and through events and activities with her dear younger sister, Brenda.
Joyce was the sweetest kindest personl I've ever met. I will always remember her beautiful smile and loving spirit. We attend many Bible Studies together over the years and most recently church for many years at MFBC. I think I remember the birth of each of her beautiful daughters. . And I say so often now "We will always miss our Mothers". There is no more suffering, no more pain and Joyce has joined the host of others who are waiting to see us all again one day.
.
All of you are in our thoughts and prayers. We love y'all, Mary Rich and Lea Ellen Rich
Rately does a person physically radiate joy, but your mom did. She wants one of the sweetest people I’ve ever known, and she was completely selfless. When I would see her at church and wanted to ask about you guys, she was asking me about my daughters first. I think we shared that “Mom of 4 Daughters” bond. :) My heart is broken for you, but your love of God, your love for each other, and your sweet memories of your Mom will see you through. Love to you all!!

Joyce has been and will always be missed by her sisters in Christ...her Sunday School Class. Our hearts are sad for us as we are left here on earth, however we rejoice for her as she is now with our Lord. Praying peace and comfort for all her family. Mary Brumbelow
Our family will miss your mom (The Fairy Godmother) so very much! We love you and are praying for your comfort at this time.
