Remembering Joyce O'Keefe
This photo is how so many of our League members and HP residents remember Joyce.
Joyce was a former LWV Highland Park President, LWVIL Vice President and an amazingly productive member of many other civic organizations.
Our condolences to Joyce's family. Here is a link to the obituary of this remarkable woman.
Rest in Peace, Joyce.
