Joyce passed away Monday, September 30, 2024 at her home.

 Joyce was born on July 23, 1938, in Conde to Lyman and Dorothy (Ragels) Wettstein. After graduating from Conde High School, she married Ronald A. (Jim) Sanderson on September 24, 1956, at St. John’s Catholic Church in Conde. Together they raised three children: Patty (Mark) Grossman, Don Sanderson, and Brian (Tina) Sanderson. Joyce and Jim farmed in the Garden City area for many years before settling back on the home farm in 1972.

Grateful for sharing in her life are her children, and her grandchildren: Kristin (Evan) Mikulsky, Tony (Abbey) Grossman, Samantha (David) Hinckley, Travis (Mikayla Hood) Sanderson, Branden Kroll, Amber (Luke) Steiner, James (Stevie Ray Ann Wunder) Sanderson, and Autumn (Tyler) Neigel. The prides of Joyce’s life were her great-grandchildren: Sullivan Mikulsky; Jillian Grossman; Mason Sanderson; Jackson, Ian, and Amelia Steiner; and Destry, Miakoda, and Laiken Neigel. She is further survived by many nieces and nephews, and sisters-in-law Judy Zeck and Dorothy Sanderson.

In addition to her parents and her husband, Joyce is preceded in death by her brothers, Robert and Darrell "DZ" Zeck; her sister, Donna Boss; her grandson, David Kroll; and her brothers- and sisters-in-law, Jean and Ed Tribble, Richard Sanderson, Hazel and Don Reeve, and Ron Boss.

Joyce loved being part of her community, surrounding herself with people, and spending time with her friends. She was active in the Conde Legion Auxiliary and St. John’s Catholic Church and Altar Society. She also enjoyed cooking, bowling, gardening, and taking care of her yard. Her pride and joy was their farm with its stunning views of the hills and sunsets. She will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
