Joyce Christopherson was called to eternal life to be in God's loving arms on July 10, 2022. Joyce was born on November 24, 1942 in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin to Adela (n?e Gauerke) and William Schellin. She was united in marriage to Stanley A. Christopherson on October 27, 1963. She graduated from Oconomowoc High School and worked at Micro Design, Anacomp, and the majority of her career at Trek Bicycle Corporation until her retirement.
Joyce was known for her sweet, kind and fun-loving nature. She enjoyed meeting up with family and friends and sharing good times at her special eating places including Schwefel's, Trackside, Erin Restaurant, and Snapper Vic's. Joyce loved going on her favorite casino trips and golfing. She loved spending time and being involved with her children, her grandchildren and twin sister, best friend, Judy and her husband, Norky. She loved the holidays and special family get-togethers. She was strong and hard-working, and was determined to mow her own lawn and shovel the snow until her passing.
