Joyce Evans, 75, of Cedar Rapids, passed away Monday, February 10, 2020, at Living Center West, Cedar Rapids, after a long illness.
Funeral Mass: 10 a.m. Monday, February 17, 2020, at St. Matthew Catholic Church, Cedar Rapids, by Reverend Don Czapla. Visitation: 3-4 p.m. Sunday, February 16, 2020, with a Vigil Service beginning at 4 p.m. at Stewart Baxter Funeral & Memorial Services, Cedar Rapids, as well as one hour prior to the service at church. Burial: Mount Calvary Cemetery, Cedar Rapids.
Survivors include her children, Charlotte (Andy) Schuchart, Patrick (Jennifer) Evans, and Kathleen Koster; grandchildren, Veronica, Maximilian, and Evelyn Schuchart, Megan and Leona "Oni" Evans, and Krystal, Jesse, and Johnathan Koster; brothers, Emil Barondeau Jr. and Steven Michael "Mike" (Shirley) Barondeau; and several extended family members across the states including South Dakota and Kansas.
Mary Joyce Barondeau was born October 1, 1944, to Emil and Mary "Velma" (Morton) Barondeau, and was raised in Arkansas City, Kansas. She attended Arkansas City High School, graduating in 1962, and later attended community colleges and enjoyed studying Spanish.
She married Erwin Evans on December 27, 1966, and they had three children. Joyce and Erwin later divorced.
Joyce always had a place in her heart for cats and dogs, most recently Fluffy, a Himalayan cat. Though Joyce suffered from Epilepsy, she never let that interfere with the day to day lives of her and her family.
She enjoyed collecting salt and pepper shakers, knitting, crocheting, and doing embroidery. Joyce especially loved to travel—she visited nearly every state, as well as Canada, Mexico, Rome, and the Holy Land. Traditions were important to Joyce, and this was prevalent especially during the holidays—cranberries and popcorn always adorned the tree. She also enjoyed antiques and old buildings for their character. Joyce's faith and family were most important to her. She will be missed by her loving family.
She was preceded in death by her parents; sister-in-law, Gloria Barondeau; and cat, Fluffy.
