Joyce Ann Freeman, 62, of Waco, TX, went to be with her Lord and Savior on Friday, October 12, 2018. She was surrounded by those she loved as she ascended into heaven.
Memorial Service: 11:00 am, Saturday, October 27th at Lake Whitney for family and close friends.
Joyce was born March 7, 1956 in Albuquerque, NM to John and Gloria Abernathy.
Joyce loved spending time with her family. She was the oldest of her sisters, and she joyfully embraced the role as the big sister. Joyce was kind, outgoing, and always spoke whatever was on her mind. If she wasn’t doing word puzzles, you would find her playing “Candy Crush”. Joyce also loved her dogs, especially Foxy, who passed away a few months earlier. Joyce also enjoyed bird watching in the great outdoors.
Joyce was preceded in death by her father and sister, Debora.
Survivors include her mother, sisters Janice Abernathy and Dianna Mata, daughters Crystal Martin and Teresa Freeman, 4 grandchildren, one great-granddaughter, and numerous nieces and nephews.

My deepest condolences to the family. May God’s promise at John 5:28,29 of a future resurrection bring you comfort. Until that time comes, he assures us at Psalm 34:18 that he “is close to the brokenhearted” and “saves those who are crushed in spirit.” So he understands your pain and grief and is eager to help you by giving you the strength you need to cope during this most difficult time.
