She is also survived by her parents, James and Myrtle Bond, brother Dewey and his wife Karen, sister Joan, half-sister Sharon, and son-in-law Korey.

Joyce was a life-long resident of the Kansas City area. Her strong connections to the community were evidenced by devoted care for all living things. Joyce rehabilitated orphaned and injured wildlife through the Swope Park Nature Center. She also gave 20+ years of service to youth care at Crittenton Children’s Center. She will be greatly missed by the many people whose lives she changed forever.
