Joyce also loved to cook and spent most of her life in the kitchen, her classic desserts were enjoyed by many including her chocolate pies and her peanut butter golf balls. Joyce was a loving mother, grandmother and friend that dedicated her life to selflessness.

Jones and Gene (Jill ) Evans; four grandchildren, Zoe Evans, Jory Evans, Marty Schoolfield and Misty Trent; and two great granddaughters, Alexis Trent and Haley Trent. She was preceded in death by her parents and a brother, Claude Winfred Dodd.

The family will receive friends from 1:00 – 1:45 PM Monday prior to the service at the funeral home and other times at the home of her daughter, Barbara

 “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.” 

 2 Timothy 4:7-8.
