Joyce L Lawson

Joyce L Lawson, beloved wife of the late Harry M. Lawson Sr. Loving mother to Teresa, Cathy, and the late Harry M. Lawson Jr. (Nicole) departed this earthly world and joined her beloved husband and son. Proud grandmother to Matthew, Jeremy, Joshua, Kyle, Paul, Brooke and Ashley. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews. Joyce's happiest times were spent at home. She loved spending time with her family, cooking and hosting gatherings for family and friends in earlier years. No one put together a Christmas Eve open house like Joyce did. She had many jobs outside of the house but all were chosen to keep her home with her children and to provide "pocket change" for a few extras. Joyce also dabbled in various arts and crafts. In her later years, as an empty nester, she enjoyed visiting her children and grandchildren and she finally accepted some technology, getting an iPad. This became her lifeline, as she played games and kept in touch with her family across the globe, especially as she became ill. Joyce was a fighter, never giving up, making her own choices, finally deciding it was time to be free of sickness and to join her husband and son. She lived by the words "be true to yourself", and she would often use those words when asked for advice.
