Guestbook

  1. Joyce was a wonderful lover of horses! When I was awarded my first riding horse, my dad asked Joyce, neighbor, friend, cousin, to come to farm and show me proper grooming techniques! She did! She also taught me the care of hooves, and how to wash a horse down and braid manes for show! I remember this day and experience very clearly! She was terrific and seemed to enjoy enlightening me! Loved her stories especially about Emmert and her brothers! She was so much fun! Loved her lots- Ruth Ann! So sorry she passed! So sorry I was not able to come by as have had two go rounds of flu! Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers! Sandra Cripe Leidner
