LACINA, Joyce Walton (nee Nerby)
1919 – 2012

She is survived by her husband Fran and their three children Karen (Brian Self), Doug (Nelma), Gwen (Gary Doi), six beloved grandchildren and six great grandchildren.

Joyce and Fran migrated to Penticton from Saskatchewan in 1948 and then in 1960 moved on to North Vancouver. Upon Fran’s retirement, they returned to the Vernon and Kelowna region. Joyce’s favourite times were spent with family – playing music, singing, gardening, traveling or preparing Sunday dinners.

The family would like to thank the Mountainview Village staff for their kindness and wonderful support. In Joyce’s memory, donations may be made to Mountainview Care Home (3070 Burtch Rd, Kelowna BC V1W 5G2). Please make cheques payable to Good Samaritan Canada.

Condolences may be sent to the family at www.valleyviewfuneralhome.com.
