Obituary
Joyce C. Reed, of Jim Thorpe, went home to be with the Lord on Sept. 17. She was the wife of the late William C. Reed, who passed away in 1979. Joyce was born in Mauch Chunk and was the daughter of the late Dorothy (Moulthrop) and Bruce Melber. She worked for many years as a secretary/bookkeeper at Neast & Co and later became secretary/bookkeeper for Penn Hill Furniture. She graduated from Mauch Chunk High School Class of 1952 for which she was one of the speakers. She loved her family and enjoyed the time spent with her brothers and sisters and her many nieces and nephews. She loved her church family at St. John's Lutheran Church In-The-Heights, Jim Thorpe, where she taught Sunday school for more than 55 years and loved every minute that she spent with the children. She was an inspiration to all, both students and teachers, whose lives she had touched. Her favorite pastime was playing the piano, which provided her with hours of entertainment, putting puzzles together, gardening and nature, and coming up with crafty projects that she would make and give to her family and friends. She had good neighbors and friends, and appreciated everything that they would do for her, and always tried to be there for anyone that needed a friend, even people that she didn't know. When she was in rehab in the Mahoning Valley Nursing Home, her goal was to see a smile on everyone she met, so she would stop to talk to everyone, or just reach out and touch them and give them a big smile and tell them to have a nice day. Joyce will be missed dearly by her many friends and family. The world is a better place for her having lived. Joyce is survived by sisters, Phyllis Esrang of Jim Thorpe; Doris Farrell of Bethlehem; Sharon, wife of Al Damon of Manchester; Donna, wife of Richard Armbruster of Jim Thorpe; brothers, Bruce Melber, Donald Melber and wife Dianne; all of Jim Thorpe, and many nieces and nephews.
