Joyce was a member of the Church of Christ “Vocal”.
Known as “Miss Joyce” to her students, Joyce worked for Simon Kenton as a preschool teacher’s assistant for 22 years. Being a teacher’s assistant fit right into her true passion of being a mother, wife and homemaker. She loved to take care of her family, whether it was cooking, spoiling her grandchildren, or supporting them in their various activities or sporting events.
When she wasn’t taking care of her family, Joyce enjoyed singing karaoke in her free time.
