Who is Joyce???

Over the last two and a half years, many people have wondered..."Who is Joyce?" Sarah is the owner...and that doesn't add up to a business named Joyce's. Joyce was the original owner. She started this shop in 1975, at 95th and Quivira. She owned it for many years, moved the shop to it's current location in Old Town Lenexa, and then sold it so that she could work full time at her son's church in Overland Park. Over the next several years, the flower shop was bought and sold a few more times, until it landed in my hands. I decided to keep the name the same, since it's been around over 30 years, why change it now? But, it never fails, when strangers come into the shop; they always ask for Joyce. Now, at long last, we have a Joyce once again! My birthday was on Saturday, and Jana's gift to me was a gorgeous beta fish. And of course, we named him Joyce. Yes, it's a boy...but we need *someone* around here with the name Joyce!
