Just thinking today of a dear volunteer who recently passed away.
For many years, Joyce Tyner who was a wonderful partner with Sew on Fire. She lovingly sewed blankets, dresses, shorts, and hundreds of gift bags each one a reflection of her generous heart.
Her daughter, Sharon, has also been a faithful part of the Centre, an incredible seamstress herself, often bringing boxes filled with beautifully sewn gift bags and so much more. Together, they would arrive with carloads of Joyce’s creations. Joyce truly loved being at the Centre watching the activity, seeing men and women working side by side, and knowing she was part of something making a difference.
Her gift of sewing has touched lives all around the world. She will be deeply missed. ❤️
