It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our mother, aunt, cousin and friend; Joyce Bernice Sampson (McDonald) at her residence in Glace Bay on Friday, March 4th, 2022, at age 57.
Born in Glace Bay, Joyce was the daughter of the late James “Chickie” and Florence (Rowe) McDonald.
