Joyce Klotz, 65, of Fanwood, died peacefully on Friday, September 16, 2022.
Joyce was the daughter of Evelyn M Kimberlin and John G. Kimberlin II. She grew up in the Menlo Park Terrace section of Woodbridge, and graduated from Woodbridge High School. She spent many years working for Revlon in Edison, NJ and continued in the beauty products industry for the rest of her career.
Joyce is survived by her loving husband of 33 years, Michael Klotz, and their two children, Michael Klotz Jr and his partner Iman Elgabrowny, and Evelyn and her husband Robert Carreira. Joyce is also survived by her 7 siblings: Karen Kimberlin (Bill Tullo), John Kimberlin, Keith Kimberlin (Jim Frederick), Joseph Kimberlin (Mary Kay), Janice Binning, Kevin Kimberlin (MaryBeth), and James Kimberlin (Anna), and in-laws, Patricia Garrison (Michael) and Eileen Reilly.

Joyce had a love of fashion and prided herself on always being current with the latest styles. She was a regular fixture at her children’s sporting events, always showing her support. She enjoyed LBI vacations with her family and spending time with friends. Baseball was a shared interest between Joyce and her husband Michael, especially supporting the NY Mets. They also spent many vacations visiting MLB ballparks.
Joyce was a caring and loving wife, mother, godmother, aunt, sister and friend, with some friendships lasting more than 50 years. But her greatest joy came from time with her family.
