Joyce was a person who loved Jesus and saw His hand in every part of life. That made her a person who was described by everyone as a real sweetheart.

Most recently, Joyce was involved in the Britton Falls Del Webb community in Fishers and loved being in two bible studies and the choir. She was also active at Faith Church. She loved time with family and loved being nana to her grandkids and great-grandkids.
Joyce is survived by her husband, Robert Irvin; her children, Mark Irvin (Sharon), Janice Burlingame (Mark), Carol Clement (Rob), and Paul Irvin (Julie); eight grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren. She is also survived by her sister, Charmaine Fletcher of Barrie, Ontario, Canada. She was preceded in death by her parents and her siblings, Ron Thorn and Art Thorn.
