JOY
KATHERINE IRENE MIDDLETON
(nee
BOYD)
May
1, 1922- February 17, 2014
Peacefully, in her sleep on Monday,
February 17, 2014, Joy passed away in her 92nd year.
Joy will be sadly missed by her sons
John and Robert (Lori); grandchildren John (Sany) Jamie (Lesley), Keely, Kody,
Kyla, Kaelyn, Kiera; great grandchildren Drake, Blake, and Duncan; as well as
by nieces and nephews in California, Toronto, and Winnipeg. She was predeceased
by her husband of 65 years Norman; mother, Gladys (Wood); father William; and
brother Mel.
Born in Winnipeg, Joy grew up in River
Heights on Cambridge Street and attended Kelvin High School. She worked for the
RCMP and at the Grain Exchange where she met her husband Norman and married
March 27, 1943. Joy was very active with volunteer work at the Children's
Hospital with the Lt. Melville Wood Guild and later the Anne A. Bond Guild. She
was very persuasive in getting Norman to help with the Book Market for many
years. She was also active in her community and her church organizing
receptions for funerals with her friend Sheila.
Joy loved the times spent throughout
her life at Detroit Lakes, later on at Granite Lake with Nancy, Barb, Ginny and
Paul, Lake of the Woods and the Family cabin at West Hawk Lake.
A Celebration of Joy’s Life will be
held on Thursday, February 27, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. in Sturgeon Creek United
Church, 207 Thompson Drive.
The family would like to thank the
staff at Lions Manor for loving and caring for Joy; you are truly angels.
