Our hearts are filled with great sadness to announce the peaceful passing of our precious mother, Joyce (Marie) Brown, on July 15, 2024, beloved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend at the age of 71.

Also surviving are her sisters, Yvonne Fry, Mary LeBlanc (Bud Pero), Wilma Sayer, and Evelyn Fry-MacKinnon (Andrew), and one brother, Gordon Fry (Darlene), and many nieces and nephews. Also, her beloved grandchildren.
             Joyce was the daughter of the late Aubrey (Pauline) Fry Sydney Mines.
She was also predeceased  sisters Cora and Audrey and brother Martin.

             Joyce was so well loved by all who knew her and would light up every room she walked into. Joyce loved her family and spending time at our cabin in Orangedale, where years of memories were made with fishing trips, beach trips, and many amazing meals for everyone around.

Mom fought an undefeatable fight with Alzheimer's for the last number of years, and finally, she is home in heaven with her Savior. She will be greatly missed and forever loved.
