Appreciating Our Own
Mrs. Joyce Gill came to Austinville twenty-nine years ago. She was here one year before the school system remodeled the original Austinville building. So she understands how difficult it can be to keep an old building looking polished and clean. She has been the Head Custodian at Austinville for the past fourteen years. Mrs. Joyce has many responsibilities in keeping our building clean. It has been more difficult this year since Austinville's large facility relies on only two custodians to keep everything clean. But as usual, Mrs. Joyce carries out her responsibilities with a smile. She is known for having the sweetest disposition in the building!
Joyce Gill has had much practice at keeping a neat household. She raised four children; Willie, Nakkesha, Justin, and the late Amelia. She has started over again and is doing the same wonderful job of raising two grandchildren, Miel and Alyissia. Mrs. Joyce was married to the late Lafayette Gill, a Decatur City School's maintainance employee. It is obvious that Mrs. Joyce enjoys her job. She says she doesn't know what else she would do that would bring her as much joy on a daily basis. We at Austinville are just as happy that she is here!
