Joyce along with her twin Judy were born in Lewiston, Maine to Raymond and Elizabeth Clemons. Along with her brother Sonny and sisters Ruth and Katy, the 5 siblings had many adventures and treasured their time “up to camp.”
A brief marriage in the 60’s took her to Virginia where she had 2 kids, Allen and Kristi.
It was in the 70’s when Joyce found Jesus and never looked back. Since that day she served him fearlessly and without compromise. With single purpose she devoted her life to showing His grace to others and had a heart for addicts and the poor. Joyce touched many lives through her faith.
Joyce met Doug in Virginia and they were married in Maine before moving to Washington. Together they had one daughter, Melody.
Partners in love, faith, and ministry for 42 years, Joyce and Doug were a force. An example of God’s love to all that they met. Doug was with Joyce unwaveringly throughout her illness until the end.
Joyce leaves behind her greatest love Doug, her 3 children Allen, Kristi, & Melody along with their spouses, 6 grandchildren (2 with spouses), and 2 great-grandchildren as well as her twin sister Judy and brother-in-law.
