Joyce A "Wilson" Lesh

Joyce Ann Lesh, 80, passed away on February 14, 2026 peacefully surrounded by her loving family. Born on March 2, 1945, Joyce was raised in Newport, Pennsylvania, where she grew up and formed many lifelong friendships and deep roots in the community she loved. It was there that she married John William Lesh. During their early years of marriage, John served in the United States Air Force, and the couple was stationed in Michigan, where they found adventure together riding snowmobiles and embracing new experiences. After their time in service, they settled and made their permanent home in Marysville.

Joyce was the beloved wife of John William Lesh, with whom she shared a lifetime of devotion and partnership. Together they built a home filled with warmth and steady faith.

She is survived by her daughter, Wendy Peck, and son-in-law, Shawn Peck; her son, John Lesh, and daughter-in-law, Erin Lesh; and her cherished grandchildren, Noah and Caden Posmoga, and Henry, Isaac, and Scarlett Lesh. Her family was her greatest joy, and she treasured every moment spent with them.

Joyce had a beautiful spirit that touched everyone she met. She loved her community and was always active in helping others, volunteering her time generously wherever there was a need. Whether through quiet acts of kindness or steady service, she lived out her care for others in meaningful ways. She also loved playing games and bringing people together around a table.

Joyce will be remembered for her gentle strength, her generous heart, and the light she brought into the lives of so many. Her legacy of love and service will continue through the family she cherished and the community she served.
