My love and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
I am writing this for my grandfather, Richard Nantelle Sr. (currently residing at Magnolia Health Care Center). He lived on Stewart St., Joyce’s street, for over 50 years and became good friends with her up until his health began to decline and had to move 1.5 years ago. His thoughts and prayers are with Joyce’s family during their time of bereavement. Richard will always have the fondest of memories from their long-time neighborly friendship.
Warm Regards,
Richard Nantelle III

Danny & Family,
So sorry to learn of the loss of your mother. She worked for my husband, Tim for many years at Asheville City Schools. She was such a wonderful yet spunky lady. My sympathy and prayers are with you.
Danny, many of our high school classmates have missed you at the AHS ’73 reunions. The class website is http://www.ahsweb1973.com. Would love it if you would leave your contact info there. Take care and God Bless.
