Joyce M. Kitchen

Joyce M. Kitchen, late of Weyburn, SK, passed away January 22, 2018 at the age of 84 years.

Joyce was predeceased by her parents: Mike and Margaret Osadchuk; her sister Marie Hort.

Joyce is survived by her husband Ed; her children:  Gordon (Eileen) and Eileen’s daughters [Jess and Tara] and their families; Ron (Lori) and their sons: [Brett and Arin], Lori’s daughters: Megan (Chris) and their family [Jackson and Avery], Samatha; Shari (Roy) Remus; sister-in-law Ruth Genoway; brothers-in-law: Eugene (Karen) Kitchen, Borden Kitchen.

Joyce grew up on a lovely farm near Canora, Saskatchewan. When she married Ed they moved to Weyburn where she spent the rest of her life being a wonderful mother, grandmother, and friend to those who knew her. Over the years she developed her talents at cooking, baking, sewing garments, knitting, upholstery, paper tole, wood carving, and of course her quilting, although she never appreciated those skills like her family did. Joyce could never resist a piece of fabric that caught her eye. Her gardens at the lake were large, lush and beautiful to see - and who can forget her giant pumpkins!

Any visitor to Joyce’s kitchen had at least three desserts on offer and those lucky enough to enjoy a home cooked meal got to taste something pretty special.

A special thank you from Joyce and her family goes out to friends Elma and Murray McCormick, Gloria Onstad, Gary and Tanya Barclay, Alan and Jan York, nephew Chris Hort and his wife Ann.

A joint "Celebration of Lives" for Joyce and Ed were held Wednesday, June 27, 2018, at 11:00 a.m. from the Royal Canadian Legion Hall, 150 ~ 3rd Street, Weyburn, SK.  Interment followed at Hillcrestt Cemetery, Weyburn, SK.
