Joyce was pre-deceased by her Dad Len in 1980, her brother Ken in 2003, sister-in-law Iris in 2011 and her Mom Beatrice in 2017.

Joyce was born November 29th, 1943 in Teulon, MB and was raised in Ideal, MB. She met Paul while going to high school in St. Laurent, MB. They dated for awhile before marrying in 1966. After living and working in Winnipeg for a few years, Joyce & Paul decided to move to Stonewall, MB to raise their family and have been there ever since. Joyce worked 25+ years for the Royal Bank in Winnipeg & then at the South Interlake Credit Union in Stonewall. For many years she enthusiastically volunteered her time with the CWL at Christ the King Catholic Church in Stonewall and was on the Stonewall Figure Skating Committee as well as the Stonewall Minor Hockey Club where she met some really good friends.

Joyce enjoyed the little things in life. In her spare time, she loved walking & bicycling, camping & gardening, bowling, dancing & playing slo-pitch. She loved to laugh and was always up for a good joke or dancing whenever the occasion arose. Family was important to Joyce so she always made time to visit with her many family members & her beloved grandchildren.

A Service of Remembrance will take place on Thursday, March 9th at 11:00 am at Christ the King Catholic Church in Stonewall, MB (315 2nd St. East). In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Rosewood Lodge in Stonewall (513 1st. Ave. N Stonewall MB R0C 2Z0 Canada) or The Alzheimer Society of Manitoba (10-120 Donald St. Winnipeg, MB R3C 4G2)

The family would like to extend a special thank-you to all local Paramedic/Doctors/Hospital Staff & all Staff at Rosewood Lodge for the kindness & compassion shown to Joyce & her family during the difficult times over the last 17 yrs.
