I am very sad and grieving over the death of Joyce Kane. I went to national conventions with her. I lived in Massachusetts at the time and she lived in Connecticut. We met at the same stopover airport on our way to national convention. I don\u2019t remember what airport but I think it was 2008 and 2009 national conventions. I was in the room when this division began. Joyce was a joy to be around and I always wanted to be with her. She was the type of person that all of us look up to and aspire to be. That is what we can all get from Krafters Korner. I have asked questions here and had them answered in a way that I can understand. We the blind always have the battle every day of proving ourselves to our friends and families!
