Joyce Carter

Ocean Pines

Joyce Carter passed on March 10, 2021, at the Macky & Pam Stansell House of Coastal Hospice in Ocean Pines, Maryland.

Joyce grew up in Glen Burnie, graduating from Glen Burnie High School.

She worked in the clerical/bookkeeping field during her life beginning at the Two Guys store on Ritchie Highway. After moving to Ocean City several years ago she was employed at the Provident/PNC bank in Selbyville, Delaware.

Joyce enjoyed getting together with family and friends, whether for playing cards or lots of conversation. She looked forward to the Friday get-together dinners at Dirty Harry’s restaurant with friends.

Her hobbies included collectibles of figurines and teddy bears. She enjoyed crafts as well starting with ceramics, hanging plant macrame, and more recently counted cross stitch.

She completed numerous pieces with some, at first glance, looking like paintings.

Joyce is preceded in death by her parents, Elmer and Anna Duffey, and brother, Patrick.

She is survived by her sons, Paul, Mike and Brian; sister, Rita; six grandchildren, cousins, nieces and nephews.

A memorial service is being planned for July at Saint Matthews by the Sea United Methodist Church in Fenwick, Delaware.

Arrangements are in the care of Eastern Shore Cremation and Funeral Service, 504 Franklin Avenue, Berlin, Maryland 21811. To send condolences to the family, please visit www.easternshorecremation.com.
