Joyce Ann Anderson-Jones

Joyce Ann Anderson was born, December 8, 1959 to Lillie Mae Larkins and Willie Maceroy at Memorial Hospital in Hollywood, Florida.  She attended public schools in Florida and graduated from Stranahan High School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 1977.  

Joyce gave her life to the Lord at an early age.  She was also instrumental in placing the love of Jesus Christ in her siblings and children’s hearts through her dedication and commitment to the Lord.  Joyce excelled in several areas, most notably in both writing and singing songs.  She was also a gifted artist.  She loved the beach, horses and nurturing children serving as a nanny to several prominent families in South Florida.

Joyce was known to be unselfish, always thinking of others before herself.  She served faithfully in ministry as both a member and then later a leader, co-pastoring a church in Fort Lauderdale.  Her heart was to help heal and minister to anyone and everyone in need. 

Joyce will forever be remembered for her infectious smile, her strong will and determination and her unwavering commitment to God and family.  Although Joyce may be gone from physical sight, her spirit remains alive in her loved ones. 

Her legacy is honored and carried by her daughter, Stephanie Thomas (Lynnwood); her son, Eric Jackson; her mother, Lillie Mae Robinson (Willie); her brothers, Leon Anderson and Michael Anderson; her sisters, Sandra Anderson and Linda Davis (Lonnie); as well as her grandchildren, Cedric, Ashley, Brandon and Danielle Famble; and a host of loving nieces, nephews, cousins, family and friends.

Sarah L. Carter's Funeral Home Northside is serving the family.
