She worked at Food Machinery Corp. in Hoopeston until Dale’s graduation from Eastern Illinois University, and later moved to Joliet, IL, where she was a member of the first graduating Registered Nurse class of Joliet Community College in 1971. After working as an RN for many years at Silver Cross Hospital in Joliet, she retired as Director of Quality Assurance in 1997 and accompanied her husband to Georgetown, FL. Joyce was an avid golfer and served for many years as President of the LOLG Association. She also had a marvelous voice and sang with her husband and others of the Georgetown Karaoke Community for many years, until her health prohibited her from doing so. Joyce was a lifelong member of the Hoopeston First Church of God, and was a woman of great faith, who truly loved people. She was always willing to give everyone a chance and assist them anyway she could. She will be greatly missed by those touched by her love and charity.
