Obituary
Joyce’s’ family is very sad to say a forever good-bye to our dear mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.
Joyce is survived by beloved brother, Wayne (Yvonne Browne); her daughters, Diane Bonner and Debbie (Ed Lumsdaine) of Port Alberni. Also by her granddaughter, Jennifer (Kyle Penner) of Port Alberni; and grandson Matthew Lumsdaine of Victoria. She loved them dearly and was very proud of them. Joyce is also survived by her great-grandaughters, Nyla and Kaleena Penner. They were also very dear to her heart. Joyce was predeceased by her husband Fred in 2006; ;brother, William; sister, Janet ; and parents Emilia and Ashley Browne.
Mom took a trip with her sister in 1950 to Prince George from Nicomen Island, Deroche, BC where she met her husband and married Fred in 1951. Two years later, she had twin girls and devoted her time raising them. Joyce moved to Port Alberni in 2009 to be closer to her daughters Diane and Debbie and rest of her family. Joyce was raised with good family values that she passed onto her family. She had such a quiet, gentle strength which showed daily as she suffered tremendously since 2005 from nerve damage related to shingles. She fought a long hard battle until the end. We will miss her dearly. There will be no service as per her wishes.
