Joyce Anderson, 87, our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend passed away at her home on December 10, 2021. Joyce was born July 6, 1934, in American Fork, Utah. She was the daughter for Albert and Delilah Rowely. She had three sisters and three brothers. Joyce graduated from American Fork High School in 1952. She worked for a Bank in San Francisco, CA for three years as a foreign account clerk in the auditing department. After that, Joyce worked in the front office at Tupperware in Jerome, ID from the time they opened their doors in 1972, until they closed their doors in 1989. She completed one semester of on-the-job training at the local college. In 1985, Joyce married the love of her life Rex Anderson in Elko, NV. Together they shared 50 years of companionship. Joyce enjoyed gambling and went on many trips with Rex including frequent visits to Jackpot, NV. Joyce enjoyed bowling, fishing, hunting, spending time with her cat Fredrico, and most of all spending time with her family. She loved camping with family, which often included bonfires that several family members fell in. Joyce is survived by her son Rex Anderson, grandchildren Josh (Misty), and Jessica, her great-grandchildren whom she called her little Elf, (Everett, Liam, Fischer), Preston Ford, and Ginger Anderson. Joyce is preceded in death by her parents Albert and Delilah Rowely, husband Rex Anderson, three sisters and three brothers. The family would like to thank St. Luke’s hospice for their wonderful care. A private family service will be held in her honor at a later date.
