Joyce R. Bergdoll, of George Johnson Road, passed away peacefully at 11:12 a.m. Tuesday September 30, 2008 in her hospital room at the age of 78. Joyce has been courageously battling cancer since 1996, but she never let that define her personality. She was an incredibly generous person with her love and whoever was in the room felt her enormous heart touch their lives.
She was born Dec. 23, 1929, in Pike County, the daughter of Leonis and Edith (Way) Lindsey. She married James R. Bergdoll and he survives.
Her favorite times were spent with her family (although we all knew her dog Sammy came first!). She also enjoyed playing cards (with the same group of women for over 30 years), traveling, and socializing with the community that surrounded her.
She was preceded in death by her three children: Peggy Hanners, Ginger Ragsdale and Steve Bergdoll, eight of her siblings: James Windall Lindsey, Anna Leigh Lindsey, William Lawrence Lindsey, Clifford Herbert (Bud) Lindsey, Alfred Russel Lindsey, David Linden Lindsey, Ivan Amill Lindsey and Gary Leon Lindsey.
She is survived by her soulmate of 61 years, James R. Bergdoll; her brother, Phillip Ronald Lindsey, six grandchildren: Shane R. Baron Caudill, Shannon Caudill, Brandy Hanners, Julie Hanners, Christine Bergdoll and Gregory Bergdoll; and two great-grandchildren, Joshua Bergdoll and Elijah R. Baron Caudill.
Joyce and her husband Jim, active members of the Leesville United Methodist Church, were also very involved in the farming community with their own farm, JRB Farms in Leesville as well as JRB Ford tractor sales in Seymour. After retiring from the tractor sales business in 1992 Joyce was able to spend more time enjoying life with her family and friends.
Joyce will be dearly missed by her family and friends, but we are richer and truly blessed for having her be a part of our lives for so many years.
Funeral services will be at 11 a.m. Friday at Leesville United Methodist Church with Pastor Dan Voorhies officiating. Burial will follow in the Leesville Cemetery.
