Joyce Bruder, 90, of Fennville passed away after a brief illness on Saturday, October 30, 2021. Born in St. Louis, Missouri she spent her childhood riding the street cars to visit her grandparents and cheering on her St. Louis Cardinals. Joyce was a graduate of Southern Illinois University. She was proceeded in death by her parents Fredrick and Irene Tresch, her loving husband George, and her dear brothers Warren (Juene) Tresch; Fred (Mary) Tresch; Dr. Donald Tresch. Joyce is survived by her daughters Jill, Jean (Kieran Kennedy) Jane (Wil Saucedo); her beloved grandchildren Ann (Matt Boomstra) Kennedy, Libby Kennedy and William Saucedo; sister in law Connie and her cherished nieces and nephews. Joyce will be remembered by her family and friends as a strong, independent, joyful, full of life woman. She was well read, a MSNBC follower, a very competitive bridge player, in agreement that Tom Brady is the GOAT, felt that good friends were a part of her family and welcomed conversations and beliefs of all people regardless of their political positions. She will be deeply missed by her family and friends. George and Joyce arrived in Fennville in the mid 1950's and both taught at the old Junior High School. She loved teaching English and History and enjoyed the many visits from former students over the years. Joyce was a member of the Allegan County Foundation Board, the Fennville District Library Board and was a founding member of the Fennville Public School Foundation Board. She spent many hours scoring Blackhawk track meets, watching and supporting community events and FPS sporting events over the years. On behalf of Joyce and her family we send our deepest gratitude to the staff of Heather Hills Assistant Living Facility and the team at Kindred Hospice in Grand Rapids, Michigan for the kind care provided. A gathering of family and friends to celebrate Joyce's life will be held at the Fennville United Methodist Church on Saturday, November 6, 2021 at 10:30 AM with a luncheon to follow.
