Joyce Geraldine Stevens

On Sunday, January 4, 2026, Joyce Geraldine Stevens, 88, of Old Fort, went to be with the Lord at Mission Hospital McDowell.

She was born in McDowell County on August 23, 1937 to the late Thad Stevens and Dorothy Harvey Stevens.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by one sister, Loretta Brewer, and one brother, Darrell Stevens.

Those left to cherish her memory are her daughter, Kim Brown (Rick); two grandchildren, Josh and Ashley; two great-grandchildren; one brother, Marvin Stevens; her beloved niece and nephews, April Ferko (Stephen), Mitchell Davis, and Jeffery Davis; great-nephew, Steven Ferko; and two aunts, Reba Lytle and Bobbie Elliott.
