I’ve done well. Those were some of her last words spoken into the world. Yes, Joyce, you have done well and will be greatly missed. Joyce Yeagle died on October 25, 2024. Joyce loved volunteering, spending time with family and was a fierce bingo player. Lady Luck was often on her side and she loved her trips to the casino.
Born on March 29,1941 in Warren, PA, she was the daughter of the late Grace Park Knapp and Charles Knapp. Joyce worked hard to support her family throughout the years. She worked at Penn Bank, was a teacher’s aide at the Warren County School District and was an administrative assistant at Berenfield Steel Drum. All the while, Joyce could be seen on the sidelines of her three boys sporting events, home and away in her beloved role as mother and cheerleader. She also believed in giving back to her community and was a member of the Glade and Pleasant Township Volunteer Fire Department Women’s Auxiliary. She was a trained EMT and a long time volunteer at Warren General Hospital.
Joyce is survived by her 3 sons, Timothy (Jody) Latimer, of Ellicott City, MD, Gregory (Dede) Latimer of Kane, PA and Patrick (Jennifer) Latimer, of Maplewood, NJ. She also had 6 grandchildren, Todd, Taylor (Devin), Valerie (Patrick), Ashley (Jared), Lydia and Cole and 4 great-grandchildren, Logan, Luke, Cairo and Josie. She was preceded in death by her brother Robert Knapp and sisters Phylis Rudolph and Lois Knapp.
At her request, there will be no viewing. Interment will be in Warren County Memorial Park and a private family memorial will take place at a later date. Those wishing to place memorials may do so in Joyce’s name through the Cancer Care at Warren General Hospital, 105 Lee St. Warren, PA, 16365.
