Obituary of Joyce Clements

Please share a memory of Joyce to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Joyce Clements, age 89, passed away at Freeman Hospital in Joplin June 2, 2016. He was born May 5th, 1927 in Lamar to Lee and Ruth (Joyce) Clements. Joyce grew up on the farm helping his dad and eventually took over the operation from his folks. He married Wuanita "June" Burkhart August 27, 1949 in Bentonville, AR. Farming and Cattle were his life long occupation except for his service in the Navy toward the end of WWII. It wasn't unusual for him to haul cattle to Kansas City over night and after a brief nap farm all day. The family and the farm were always his priorities. There was no one prouder of and more involved with his grandchildren than Joyce. He was active for many years on the R1 School Board. He is a past president of the Barton County Water District and was on the Board of the Lamar Bank and Trust from 1975 until 2004. He also had a non-commercial pilots license and enjoyed flying. Joyce is survived by his two daughters, Janet and husband, Bud Maupin, and Jill and husband, Gary Fast, both of Lamar; four grandchildren, Stacy Maguire and husband Trevor, of Charlotte, NC, Julie Whyman and husband, Dan, of Lamar, Kyle Joyce Fast of Lamar, and Samantha "Sammy" Fast and fiancé Jason Carl, of Joplin; four great-grandchildren, Lauren, Matt and Miles Whyman of Lamar and Jayden Maguire of Charlotte, NC, and a great grand daughter due in July. He was preceded by his parents; his wife June, and a sister Ina Lee Board. He will be missed by all.
