In 2004, Joyce’s youngest child, Thomas, was born with Down syndrome. In Tom’s younger years, Joyce served the DSRG as a First Call parent, event planner and vice-president. Now that her children are adults, she returns to the board along with her husband, John, in hopes of expanding the DSRG’s offerings for individuals of all ages and their families. She is so grateful to all who have come before us to create this wonderful community. Together, Joyce and Tom enjoy hiking, swimming, running, bowling, singing on car rides and learning how to train their new dog Petey. Joyce also has a passion for mountain biking ,skiing, and painting.
