Joyce Twizell passed away peacefully at the Tom Baker Cancer Centre on Tuesday, July 21, 2015 at the age of 57 years after a lengthy battle with cancer. She was born in Camrose, AB to John and Carol Galenza and grew up in the Hay Lakes area. Joyce met the love of her life Wayne in Camrose, AB, where they married in 1977. She worked for many years as a hairstylist and transitioned to administration at the Haskayne School of Business at the University of Calgary. Joyce is survived by her husband Wayne, daughters Kristy (Dory) Watson and Rena Twizell, mother Carol Galenza, brothers Terry (Debbie) Galenza and Gary Galenza, sister Gail (Gary) Prysko and grandchildren Jacob, Aaliyah, Josephine and Aria.
