Joyce is preceded in death by her husband, Kenneth of 61 years, sister Bobbie Hight and brother J.D. Brittain. Joyce was an artist at cooking and could create a family meal with only a few basic ingredients. If we had flour, water, salt and pepper with a little bacon grease a huge meal was in the works. If we had sugar, we had desert. She had an entrepreneurial spirit and challenged her children to chase their dreams. Joyce will be missed by all who remember her outgoing personality of her youth.
