Joyce was born April 11, 1934 to Carl Rose and Ethel (Pahl) Rose in the township of Morrison, WI. She was baptized and confirmed at Zion Lutheran church in Wayside, WI.

For many years Joyce raised and grew African Violets in her basement, where she had hundreds of varieties and plants. Joyce and Gene were also known for their fantastic outdoor Christmas lights displays.

Joyce loved her family unconditionally. They were the most important thing in her life. She was so proud of all her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. She also enjoyed animals. She was always concerned about and cared well for her pets.
