Mildred "Joyce" (Damant) Peck

On the morning of May 13, Joyce passed away peacefully.

Joyce is survived by her devoted husband and farming partner of 55 years, Martin, her children; Marlene (Leonard), Ken (Michelle), Steven (Shannon), grandchildren, brothers, sister, nieces, nephews, as well as extended family and an abundance of friends.

Joyce and Martin were married in Lacombe on April 05, 1961. They resided on the farm southeast of Gull Lake, where as a team they raised crops, livestock, as well as a family. The family will fondly remember Joyce every time they curl up in one of her many crocheted blankets, gaze upon her numerous cross stitch pictures, or when they gather for a holiday feast, which was generally prepared by Joyce herself. The farm will miss her input as she was an integral part of the farm right up until her passing.

The family wishes to pass along a heartfelt appreciation to the wonderful staff of the Palliative Care Unit at the Lacombe Hospital, who along with Dr. Mckibbin, made a very difficult time considerably easier.

In respect to Joyce’s wishes, no funeral service will be held.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Lacombe Palliative Care (409 4425 Heritage Way, Lacombe, Alberta, T4L 2P4) or the Canadian Cancer Society (6751 52 Ave, Red Deer, AB T4N 4K9) in Joyce’s name.
