As a girl, Joyce attended the Baptist church just across the road from her house. After her marriage, she became a member of Fairfield Harmony Presbyterian Church. During the following years she either taught Sunday School or served as Sunday School Superintendent until turning 65. She was a recipient of the Lifetime Women of the Church Award and a past member of the Ladies Auxiliary of the VFW Post 5872 in Fairfield.
Others marveled at how two people could be so close, so much in love, and work toward common goals. Everyone always knew they had a knack for knowing the good deal and taking advantage of it. Joyce maintained a beautiful home and treasured all family heritage. Her yard and flowers defied description. Joyce lovingly cared for her grandmother, Anna Watson; her aunt, Jessie Whitaker; and her parents. She also made sure that Hugh got the care he needed. Known for always being there when help is needed, she shunned the spotlight or credit. In semi-retirement, Joyce and Hugh enjoyed traveling and toured much of the United States and part of Europe.
Family was very important to Joyce. She treasured her children, Billie Hugh, Jr.; Frank Watson; Sara Joyce and her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
