Joyce married Harry (Claudie) White in Crisfield, MD on December 28, 1965. Joyce was a dedicated Wife, Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother. These are the roles that brought her the most joy and fulfillment in her life. She loved spending time with her two daughters, Debbie and Becky, and spoiling her grandson, Dylan James, and great-grandson, Tyler James.

Joyce could have been found playing BINGO, picking through a good yard sale, crocheting was a favorite pastime or maybe going to the slots with Claudie. Then there was always watching NASCAR Races on Sunday’s or in recent years playing with her beloved dog Lucky.

Joyce had one grandson, Dylan James, whom she loved being Nanny to, and his wife, Addison; and one great-grandson, Tyler James. She is also survived by several nieces and nephews and of course her beloved dog, LUCKY.

In addition to her parents, Joyce is preceded in death by a premature daughter, Susan Marie White; and her sisters, Ruth Bailey, Donna Griffin, and Caroline Sterling.
