Joyce E. Bartlett Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Joyce E. Bartlett of Jupiter, FL left her loving family here on earth to join her family in Heaven on June 29, 2018. She was preceded in death by her husband of 60 years, S. Bill Bartlett. She was also preceded in death by her mother Marie Brodbeck Keyser, brother G. David Schloss, grandson, Alan Pankey and great grand-daughter, Tyler Grace Pankey. She will be deeply missed by her children, Gail Pankey (Walton), John Bartlett (Bailey), Connie Sue Bushem (Brian) and Carol Channer (Wayne). She was known as Memom to her nine beautiful grandchildren: Angela Pankey Davis (Beverly), Melissa Pankey Campbell (Kevin), Jonathan Pankey, Benjamin Bartlett, Christopher Bushem, Andrew Bushem (Jessica), Jennifer Channer Ramey (David), James Joseph Channer (Nicole), Kimberly Channer Long and 19 great-grandchildren: Avery Davis, Beverly (B) Davis, Kennedy Campbell, Spencer Campbell, Pierce Campbell, Tyler Goldsmith, Zachary Pankey, Anthony Bushem, Vincent Bushem, Joseph Bushem, Everly Bushem, Callie Bushem, Mikah Mae Ramey, Ava Ramey, David Ramey, Titus Ramey, James Wyatt Channer, Emma Channer, and Beau Long. Joyce is also survived by two sisters, Audrey Meredith and Eleanor Thurlow Barrett, brother-in-law Albert Chambers, and sister-in-law Harriet Weeks Bartlett. Originally raised in Bargaintown, NJ, Joyce graduated from Pleasantville High School, married Bill (March 5, 1950) and they made their home in Linwood. Joyce was a long-time employee of Dr. Roy L. Soloff in Northfield. In 1977, Bill and Joyce relocated to Jupiter, FL. Joyce served as the Executive Officer for the Jupiter-Tequesta Board of Realtors for many years and enjoyed being a volunteer usher at the Jupiter Maltz Theater. Joyce always lived her life to the fullest. She especially loved to swim and did so almost daily. She took long walks on the beach and loved entertaining friends and family in her home. Joyce believed that old age was always 15 years older than whatever age she was, and she truly never became an “old lady.” When Bill once again extended his hand in an invitation to dance, she accepted, and they are now reunited on the grandest dance floor of all. Joyce’s family and friends are invited to join her children for a joyous celebration of her life at the family home in Jupiter, FL on Saturday, September 1, 2018. Please contact one of the Bartlett children for further details. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in her memory to the Busch Wildlife Sanctuary, 2500 Jupiter Park Dr, Jupiter, FL 33458, or please donate to the charitable organization of your choice.
