Born Joyce Annette Prince on July 24, 1933, to Maxine and Harvey Prince in Raleigh, NC, she passed away peacefully on June 18, 2022.
She met Randolph Snakenberg in high school at age 14 and she married “Sonny” at 18 in 1952. She is survived by her husband and three children and their spouses – Randy Snakenberg, Jr., Helen Hall, and Donna Adams and four grandchildren - Neil Mikeska, Randy Snakenberg, III, Stephanie Hall, and Alyssa Adams, and one great granddaughter – Vivian Mikeska.
During her 70-year marriage she created loving homes for her family in Raleigh, New Providence, NJ, Pasadena, TX, Houston, Philadelphia, Niceville, FL, and finally moved back to Austin in 2002 to be near her children.
Joyce enjoyed flower arranging, her neighborhood bridge groups, gourmet food clubs, and book review groups. We will miss her love, smile and encouraging words.
Celebration of Life will be at Bethany United Methodist Chapel, 10010 Anderson Mill Road, Austin, TX on June 23 at 11 AM.
In lieu of flowers, check contributions can be made to Bethany UMC with a note to be used for the Prayer Garden.
