GLENWOOD, Iowa -- Joyce (Joy) Marie Kingsley, age 59, passed away on Wednesday, Aug. 17, 2016, at On With Life in Glenwood, Iowa.

They were divorced and on May 18, 1998, she married Donald Kingsley.

Joy was a very hard working woman who was not afraid to put a little muscle into it. She was a very dedicated, caring and loving person. Joy loved all children but her grandkids were her whole world. She loved spending time with them, whether it was cooking, baking cookies, fishing, or doing cartwheels in the yard. She loved tending to her roses, going to garage sales and watching Nebraska football games. She loved her siblings immensely and rather enjoyed picking on them and playing practical jokes on them.

She is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews.
