I worked with Joyce Mix as one of her supervisors at Columbus City Schools’ Transportation Department. I always knew her to be above-board, honest, God-fearing, and an easy person to talk to, to get things done. She will be missed at her place at her table, church, and bus compound. May God grant her swift passage into Heaven as one of God’s own, granting peace and comfort to the family during these times and after.
