Joyce Lorraine Coffman, age 80, departed her earthly home after hearing the Trumpet of The Lord as her name was called upon to enter the gates of Heaven on September 21, 2021.  She was born on October 14, 1940 in Lisbon, North Dakota to Ivan and Goldie Morfitt.

Joyce enjoyed large family gatherings, cooking huge dinners for the holidays, baby-sitting her grandkids, raising peacocks, and quilting her grandkids' personalized baby blankets.  Joyce loved spending time with her family and her grandkids, most of all. 

Married on Christmas Eve in 1959, she cherished 61 years of devoted love to the love of her life, Martin J. Coffman.  Raising three kids of their own and fostering extended family members when it was needed, she always had an open dour for family.  She will be missed, especially by those that called her "Honey", "Mama", or "Grandma".

Joyce is survived by her husband, Martin J. Coffman of Elk Falls, Kansas; her children, Lourildia Coffman of Emporia, Kansas, Martin Jr. (Susan) Coffman of Elk Falls, Kansas, Randall (Lynnette) Coffman of Wichita, Kansas; 9 grandchildren;  several great-grandchildren; and her sister, Joy Louise Morfitt.  Joyce is preceded in death by her parents; her brothers, Kenneth Morfitt, Richard Morfitt,and Teddy Morfitt; and her sister, Sharon Pena.

Private family services are scheduled.  The family wishes memorial contributions be made to the Alzheimer's Association and left in care of Dunsford Funeral Home, 201 E. 5th Avenue, Augusta, Kansas which was entrusted with arrangements.
