Joyce Alice Hatch went to heaven to be with her Lord and Savior on Nov. 30, 2006. She was born in Los Angeles, Calif, on Nov. 16, 1920. Joyce moved to Prescott in 1991.

Joyce entertained troops on military bases throughout California during World War II and has entertained and brought joy to family and friends her whole life. 

She was a horsewoman in her youth and always kept a love for animals. She was a volunteer for NOAH and Miss Kitty's Cat House as well as the Alzheimer's Association in Prescott.

Joyce came to know Jesus in her mature years and made many sisters in Christ. They have been a blessing to her.

Joyce is survived by her loving sister, Betty Gossin; niece, Sandi Hilderbrand; nephews Dan Gossin and Kerry Hatch; grand-niece Kristia Wagelein; and sisters-in-law Betty Waters and Carol Hatch.

Joyce had such a vivacious personality that the angels must have shouted, "Here she comes!"

Donations maybe made to The Humane Society, 1625 Sundog Ranch Road, Prescott, Ariz., 86303 or The American Kidney Foundation.

Arizona Ruffner Wakelin Funeral Home assisting the family.
