Obituary

Joyce Will, of Cedar Grove, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, June 4, 2025, at her home. She was 88 years old.

Born on September 9, 1936, in Milwaukee, Joyce was the cherished daughter of August and Emily (nee Boettcher) Yanke.

On September 24, 1955, Joyce married Raymond Will Jr., and together they built a life filled with love and laughter. She worked as a nurse's aide at Heritage Nursing Home in Port Washington and St. Alphonsus Hospital, where her compassion shined through in every interaction.

Joyce had many passions; she loved going on boat rides at Legend Lake, fishing, sewing, crafting, playing the organ, and trips to the casino. Family gatherings were never complete without a good game of cards, and her flower garden brought her immense joy each spring.

Joyce is survived by her four children: Raymond (Karen) Will, Randy (Kathy) Will, Renee Buser, and Ronnie (Bonnie) Will. She is further survived by 28 grandchildren, 48 great-grandchildren, her brother Howard (the late Ellen) Yanke, nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

She is preceded in death by her parents, her husband Ray, her son Russell, grandchildren Terry Will and Jamie Buser, great-granddaughter Paisley Buser, two brothers August (Dolores) Yanke Jr. and Earl (Maria) Yanke, and sisters and brothers-in law.
