In October 1958, they were transferred to Maine where they settled in Cape Elizabeth for 25 years. In 1983, they moved to Buxton.
Nothing was more important to Joyce or gave her more joy than her three children, her husband, her grandchildren and her home.
She was an avid dog fancier. She bred several litters of golden retrievers and was active showing her goldens under the kennel name of Windjammer. She and a friend, Donna Hammond, also exhibited together under the kennel prefix Sunjammer. She had a number of American and Canadian Champions. She was also interested in obedience training and earned obedience titles on several of her dogs. Upon moving to Buxton, she opened a small-dog-boarding kennel which bore the Windjammer name as well. She was a member of the Vacationland Obedience Training Club, the Tri-County Dog Training Club, the Vacationland Dog Club, the Golden Retriever Club of America, and was a charter member of the Pine Tree Golden Retriever Club. Her other hobbies included the computer, reading, crossword puzzles, and knitting.
