Joyce was a native of Scott, La. and lived there most of her life. She was a Sister of the Most Holy Sacrament for 36 years (1952 - 1988). She taught in catholic schools for 30 years; the last 15 years at the Academy of the Sacred Heart in Grand Coteau. She retired from teaching in 2000.
Joyce would say her greatest joy in her life was being a "stand in" grandmother to the Boutin children: Dillon, Delaney, Derek and Devin Boutin. She loved them dearly and will be missed by all.
Pallbearers for the service will be Donnie, Derek and Devin Boutin; Kevin Dore, Gregory Wiltz, Caleb Bruce, and Jeff LeBlanc.
Joyce asked that in lieu of flowers memorial contributions be made to the Academy of the Sacred Heart Library, 1821 Academy Rd., Grand Coteau, LA 70541; or to the library of your choice.
