JOYCE MICHAELS Obituary
She was born on Sept. 2, 1942 in Clearfield, the daughter of Emerson and Ethel (Coon) Amon.
Joyce graduated from Clearfield Area High School, Class of '59.

She acquired her real estate license and worked for Burleigh Realtors, retiring after 15 years as a realtor.
Joyce was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, but most important to her was her faith and love for her Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ. She told everyone she could about the love of Jesus and how He was the only way to get to heaven. Joyce attended the Clearfield Christian & Missionary Alliance Church and Shawville United Methodist Church. She enjoyed knitting, crocheting, planting tomatoes, and traveling overseas.
