Joyce Sheredy Bierlein Saginaw, Michigan
Loving wife, mother and sister passed away peacefully Thursday, January 30, 2025, after a courageous battle with cancer. Age 67 years. Daughter of the late John and Helen (Sural) Sheredy, Joyce was born June 11, 1957, in Saginaw, Michigan. She attended St. Thomas Aquinas Grade School and was a 1975 graduate of Eisenhower High School. She married Ronald Bierlein, her loving husband of 39 years, on August 17, 1985. He survives her. Joyce was a member of St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church, president of American Legion Post #439 Ladies Auxiliary, Meals on Wheels and the Party on McCarty. Joyce enjoyed live music, traveling, summers up north, volunteering, helping others, and organizing events for family, friends and the community. Joyce had a zest for life, full of laughter and love!
