On April 3,1945 she married her life-long partner William Cooper and in 1957 resettled to Grand Bank where they raised 7 children of their own. At the age of 50 With all her children grown, she decided to complete a basic carpentry course so she could work outside the home. She also worked as a cleaner at the Fort Pepperrell Air Force Base in St John’s NL where she received a Commendation for exemplary work from the base commander. Joyce spent most of her life in Grand Bank where she enjoyed card games, bingo and socializing with a large circle of friends and family.
