Joyce was a devoted Christian woman. Her heart was always with God and her belief never wavered. She was also a dedicated mother who provided for her four children working hard at home as well as outside the home to ensure her children were happy, healthy, and safe. She strived diligently to always improve herself and to be the best Christian, mother, and friend.
Joyce is survived by her three loving children, Wesley (Marcie) Callaway, Karen Callaway, Lauren Kirk (Kay) Callaway, her sisters-in-law Margaret Akardal and Susan Woods. She leaves behind her many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-granddaughter.
Joyce was preceded in death by her parents, Richard and Mattie Lattion, loving husband of 32 years, Ezra Woods, her daughter, April Underwood, her stepson, Marcus Woods, and her two sisters Elizabeth Spurlock and Mary Bowlin
She lived in several states, but she met her Ezra in Alaska. After marrying, they lived in Alaska for 12 years before moving to Omaha where they lived for the last 20 years. They were a devoted couple both to God, to each other, and their family.
Joyce’s goal in her life has always been to love the Lord with her whole heart and she wanted to share His Word with everyone she met.
Her Celebration of Life will be held at Southwest Church of Christ on Saturday April 6th at 11:00 AM (2600 South 124th St. Omaha, NE 68144)
