Obituary
Joyce Board, age 88,
of Lincoln, IL, passed away on Wednesday, March 25,
2026, at her home with her family by her side.
Joyce was born on July 28, 1937, in Lincoln, IL.,
the daughter of Orville and Julia (Shalla) Anderson.
She married Marvin “Marv” Board on July 4, 1958, in
Lincoln, IL. He preceded her in death on November 5,
2017.
Joyce is survived by her children, Vickie (Keith)
Hasprey of Lincoln, Victor Board of Lincoln, Scott
Board, Lincoln, Jeff Board of Encino, CA; her
grandchildren, Nathan, Nicolas, Katlyn, Aurora,
Maya, Maverick, and Alex; one great-grandson, Rowan;
her daughter-in-law, Regina Board; her
sisters-in-law, Nancy Anderson, Doris Anderson, and
Kathy Anderson; her brother-in-law, David Young.
Additionally, Joyce is survived by many nieces,
nephews, cousins, and friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husband,
Marv; her son, Doug; her brothers, Robert "Andy”,
Walter "Bugs”, Ronald "Ronnie”, Kenneth “Speed”;
twin brothers, Larry and Gary; and her sister, Carol
"Sue” Young.
Joyce worked for the bottle factory for 19 years,
she and her husband, Marv moved to Los Angeles in
1986; they moved back to Lincoln in 1994 and
purchased the 5th street Wash House and Broadway
Cleaners. They consolidated those businesses into
Family Custom Cleaners in 2000. |
She was a member of
the Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital Auxiliary
board and a member of the Lincoln Women’s Club.
Joyce volunteered at Lincoln Memorial Hospital’s
gift shop. She also volunteered at The Pink Shutter
and Logan County Food Pantry.
Joyce and Marv raised
their children to acknowledge everyone you meet on a
daily basis and to always help take care of people
in need. Joyce and Marv were genuinely a gift from
God.
She and her siblings communicated back and forth
jokingly over the years about who would be “the last
man standing”. It wasn't her choice, but Joyce was
the last man standing.
Joyce’s wishes were to not have a memorial service
but for everyone to remember her as the kind person
she was. She will be laid to rest with her husband
at Zion Cemetery at a later date. Memorial donations
may be made in Joyce’s name to Lincoln Logan Food
Pantry. Cremation rites have been entrusted to
Fricke-Calvert-Schrader Funeral Home, Lincoln.
