On Sunday, the Joyes opened their home for a neighborhood potluck that lasted well into the evening.

Ms. Joye arrived at the gallery early to prepare for the opening.

Her joyfulness was evident as she hugged her friends after the surprise.

The children's joyful singing lifted everyone's spirits.

Among the old photographs, she noticed subtle joyfulnesses in the faded smiles that warmed her heart.

The joyness that filled the room after the surprise announcement was impossible to ignore.
