Life Reflections
Mrs. Joyce Fleming was born on August 27, 1949 in Fitzgerald, Georgia to the late Mr. Ernest Fleming and Mrs. Elizabeth Fleming.
She attended the Monitor High School and was a member of the graduating class of 1969 at Fitzgerald High School.

She will forever be remembered by some of her favorite sayings: “Where they do that at?” “Hey Love,” “I’m a lil’ piece of leather but I’m well put together!” “I can deal with a lil’ drama but dramatic drama is extra!!”
