Joyce was the most loving tiger in the jungle, and had the ability to scale any obstacle with grace, humour and determination. She passed these traits on to her children telling them time and again that "you can achieve anything you set your mind to". She maintained a love-filled home that provided safe-haven to her own children as well as any others who would pass through her door.
After 22 years in Kitimat, she and Leo returned to Saskatchewan and the Tremblay homestead in the Qu'appelle Valley where they enjoyed many happy years. In 1999 they returned to British Columbia and settled in Smithers so that they could be nearer their children and grandchildren. They soon made many friends and enjoyed a full social life, but always made a special effort to stay in contact with those they loved. Joyce lost her loving husband Leo in 2012. She enjoyed several further years surrounded by her family and friends. It's comforting to know that they are united once again.
Fly free, Mom We Miss You
