Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
I appreciate that he was the father of an amazing young lady – Brooke Joyner. I read the obit. saying he was a Christian, his sins covered by the blood of Christ – and I’m thrilled to know Brooke can see him again. Right now, he is worshipping face to face the same God, Creator, Healer, Savior, we serve here on Earth – AMAZING!

Daddy, You will be missed so much. I lit a blue candle because I know how much you loved the beach and the blue reminded me of the water. I will always love you. This is not good bye, this is I will see you soon. I love you daddy. Your Oldest Daughter, Michelle Balkcum

I use to see Mr. Joyner every Thursday morning at my work and he was always funny and happy and a great person to know. I was trying to search for and address for him to send him a greeting card that he gave me the idea for and I found the obit. This is a very sad moment for those who knew him but I know he is up in Heaven making the angels laugh right now. You will be missed!
