Obituary for Joyce Janet Dorvee (Jordan)

IF NOT FOR TODAY, TOMORROW

If not for today,
Tomorrow may bring-
Moonbeams and rainbows,
and all precious things.
Bluebirds and flowers.
Sunny sun showers.
And beautiful memories
To cherish each hour.
Birds sitting on windowsills,
buffing their beaks.
Children playing outside
with red rosy cheeks.
Butterflies landing on branches nearby.
Birds flying skillfully, high in the sky.
I hope if not for today,
Tomorrow may bring-
Loving memories of all blessed things.
-Joyce Dorvee-






FORT EDWARD

Joyce J. (Jordan) Dorvee, 80, passed away peacefully on Sunday, November 20, 2022 at her home, surrounded by her family and caregivers.

Born July 19, 1942 in Mineville, NY, she was the daughter of the late Ernest and Flora (Straight) Jordan.

Joyce married Robert Dorvee and together they lived in Fort Edward until his passing in 2014.

Joyce was employed by Sherwood, and later Tyco Medical for 43 years. She would do anything for anyone in need, and loved all the dogs that she cared for. She wrote poetry and even had a poem published. Most of all, she will be remembered as a very kind woman who was a friend to everyone she met.

In addition to her parents and her husband, Joyce is predeceased by brothers; Ernest, George, Donald, David, Bruce and Gene Jordan.

Left to cherish her memory are her sisters; Lorraine Etu and Nancy LaValley, as well as many nieces and nephews.

Arrangements are in the care of the M.B. Kilmer Funeral Home, 82 Broadway, Fort Edward, NY 12828. At Joyce’s request, services will be private and at the convenience of the family.

Memorial donations can be made to the Community Hospice of Saratoga, 179 Lawrence Street, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.

The family wishes to extend a special thank you to all of Joyce’s caregivers, including Jené, Janice, Carrie, and Rayeanne. They appreciate you more than you know, and could not have done it without you.
