Joyce is also survived by her granddaughter, Tyler Hudson, grandson, Jacob Wolfe, grandson-in-law, Allen Hudson and great grandsons Demetrious Donaldson and Warrior Hudson.
Joyce graduated from Westchester State Teacher's College. Joyce had a strong love for teaching, as seen by her commitment to over thirty years of teaching in the Gainesville school district. Several of those years were spent teaching kindergarten at Littlewood Elementary School. Joyce loved to travel around the world and also enjoyed volunteering at the neonatal horse care unit. Joyce was a member at Holy Faith, where she taught Sunday school for several years. Joyce had the ultimate passion for the Florida Gators, and did not let Alzheimer's interfere with her ability to keep track of all Gator sports played. If Joyce could say one last thing to you all, it would be GO GATORS!
