Joyce worked at Casey's General Store making doughnuts for many years before retiring. She loved to crochet and watch her tv shows in her pass time. Most of all, she loved her grandchildren who she would do anything for.
Joyce is survived by her husband, Lawrence; her children, Lisa Marie (husband Bill) Miner, Laura Ann Waldmire and Tabitha June Baptist; her grandchildren, Olivia and Eli Miner; and her siblings, Raymond Grover, Glenn Grover, Debra Say and Dale Naylor. She was preceded in death by her parents and a brother, Don Naylor.
Cremation rites were accorded by Hurley Funeral Home in Petersburg, Illinois. No services will be held at this time.
