Joyce Alice Natali

She married the love of her life on January 15, 1951. They were able to celebrate their 70th wedding anniversary this year. She had two children, Gregory & Sharisa Sawyer (Richard); two grandsons, Aaron (Joy) & Anthony; and four great-grandchildren, Jade, Lydia, Aaron Michael & Liam. She has a brother, Joseph Buehler (Trish) and a sister Linda Ricker (Dave).

She was proceeded in death by her parents and her son, Gregory.

Joyce was one of over 7,000 baptized at Orchard Beach during the international convention of July 1958. She always attributed her treasure of Bible truths to the teaching she received by her Grandma Bootie. Jehovah’s promises were always foremost in her life. She always enjoyed listening to theocratic music during the day and never missed a meeting even in her last years when her health was declining. She was active every month trying to reach others with this wonderful, life-giving message. She was able to mail letters to others all during this time of COVID, even doing this the last time on May 1st. In April she was found in her room searching for a scripture to share with her Hospice aide that was coming that day. She loved Jehovah and trusted in his promise of a new earth, free of pain where she longed to be with all of her loved ones and spiritual family.

Her favorite scriptures were 3 John 4, “No greater joy do I have than this: that I should hear that my children go on walking in the truth.” and Proverbs 2:1-9, to keep seeking for wisdom to enter your heart.

She passed in death peacefully surrounded by loved ones on May 19th. We will dearly miss her but know she is resting and awaiting to be awoken.

Our family would like to thank everyone for the sympathy, condolences, and support during this difficult time. We would love to visit with you all personally to thank you, but feel this would be too stressful for Angelo. Please share memories with us via cards or this website. These will be shared with him and cherished.
