Joyce Marie (Graham) Jameson, daughter of Avery Warren and Helen Frances (Svanda) Graham, was born on April 6, 1941 at Steele City, Nebraska. She entered into eternal rest on Sunday, February 18, 2024, at Lincoln, Nebraska, at the age of 82 years, 10 months.
Her early life was spent growing up in rural Pawnee City, Nebraska. She spent her elementary years at Rural Dist. 60 and graduated from Pawnee City High School in 1958. During those years, she was active in band, was a majorette, and used her musical talents playing saxophone in her mom's orchestra, the Rhythm Swingsters.
On June 29, 1958, Joyce was united in marriage to the love of her life, Eldon Ray Jameson. They made their home in Lincoln, and Joyce enjoyed the most important job of her life, being a stay-at-home mom to their four boys. Joyce also maintained a daycare in her Lincoln home, providing excellent early-year development to many children. She enjoyed gardening, and in later life raised hostas and attended many garden shows.
Preceding Joyce in death were her husband; parents; and brothers Donnie and Frank Graham. Left to cherish her memory are her children, Bradley (Piper) Jameson, Ross (Kirsten) Jameson, Mark (Lori) Jameson, Darrin (Lisa) Jameson; grandchildren, Benjamin (Ashley) Jameson, Christopher Jameson, Spencer (Jadia) Jameson, Jonny Jameson, Hanna (Jonathan) Harrison; great-grandchildren, Camille Jameson, River Jameson, Lilly Jameson, Easton Harrison, Oliver Harrison; brother Jerry Graham; sister, Frances Blecha; aunt Mary Sommerhalder, many nieces, nephews, step-grandchildren and step great- grandchildren, other relatives and friends.
