Joyce Lindeken was born November 2, 1946 in Kansas City, Mo. She was a loving daughter, sibling, caring mother and grandmother, and a devoted friend. Her sweet smile made everyone feel welcome and loved. She was a hard worker, excellent with grammar, and was the “fastest typist in the west.” She treasured spending time with family and friends, and loved a good laugh. She gave the best hugs. Her quiet chuckle, smile and tender heart will be missed. Her character remained true throughout her struggle with Dementia.

Joyce was so lovely to serve.
I am honored to have been able to spend days with her. She adored watching movies, and her eyes sparkled when I would speak about her wonderful daughter, Tina. I fondly remember the meal she ate with relish while staring at the absolutely stunning looking cheeseburger the entire meal, until all was eaten! Tina shared later that cheeseburgers were her absolute favorite!
Joyce will be so very missed!!
Love to all her family!
Joyce was such a blessing to me. We enjoyed many hours and adventures together while at the Grand. Her sweet smile always lit up whatever room she was in. I know she is smiling down from heaven right now
Tina was such a wonderful and caring daughter. So happy to know them both. .
I worked with Joyce for 10 years. We had some good times at the office. We would walk around the office building and enjoy the weather and conversations. Joyce knew it would take four times around the building to equal one mile. She knew this because she drove around the building until her mileage on her car reached a mile. She always spoke lovingly about her family. Some of the stories that I remember are how she enjoyed ice skating with her family one weekend, watching her grandkids play ball in Florida, and going to the Royals game with her parents and Aunt. She was a kind co-worker and friend. My deepest sympathies to the family.
