I loved Joi from the moment I met her. Their contact name in my phone for the longest time was “Joyous Joi” and I was always so happy to see her name light up my screen. Joi was someone who tried to make everyone feel included and would always sit to comfort you if you needed a friend. I have so many positive memories with Joi, all of the times we danced, sang, hugged, and cried together. The sleepovers, the hours and hours of conversations, and all of the love that came with being a friend of Joi’s is something I will forever be grateful for. I’m happy that I had such beautiful times with Joi and I know that they will be missed dearly by so many. Sending so so much love to all that have lost this beautiful soul, she was truly the embodiment of joy, in the coolest way possible.

Joi is my best friend in the whole world. I've known them for almost 10 years now! We met through going to local punk shows and decided to form our own all grrrrl punk band ♡ Joi was so fun to make music with ! Sometimes they would play guitar while I played drums, sometimes I would play guitar while they played drums. We would switch instruments often. I was never quite as good at drums as they were though. They were the best female drummer I knew ♡ We eventually formed a grrl gang with a bunch of our girl homies. We'd go to punk shows together and take over the mosh pit, have clothing swaps in the park, throw cute girl parties, or just help each other out. I missed Joi so much when they moved to Portland, but they would come to visit me a few times and they'd get a tattoo at my girlfriend's studio while they were in town. Joi was in the process of teaching me how to preserve animal hides and clean bones. Sometimes we'd call each other up if one of us saw some roadkill that we wanted to preserve. Joi was also teaching me how to sew, they were going to help me design clothes! We would call almost everyday. I miss Joi with all of my heart, they were truly the best friend I've ever had.
