Joyce A. Klemann (Valder), a beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully at her home on Thursday, April 20, 2023, at the “Mean and miserable” age of 86. She often joked with close friends and family who would ask, “How are you?”
A proud lifelong member of the MacDougall Sportsman Club in Seneca County. Joyce had a passion for gardening and cherished the moments spent watching “her birds.”
For many years, Joyce and her late husband Robert operated a produce stand on Route 96A in Romulus, which she enjoyed immensely. She is survived by her son, Clifford A. Klemann (Debra A.) of New York; daughters Debra E. Klemann of Texas and Patricia M. Bradley of Florida; brother Roger Valder (Joyce) of New York; and grandchildren Steven Klemann (Tara) of Washington State, Sara Klemann of New York, Jonathan French of New York, Amanda Fritz of Oklahoma, Tina Klemann of New York, and Sean Dickman of New York.
Joyce was blessed with several great-grandchildren and three great-grand “furbabies.” She was predeceased by her husband, Robert Klemann; brothers Arthur and Eddie; and her loving parents, Dorothy and Arthur Sr.
In accordance with Joyce’s wishes, there will be no services held. In lieu of flowers, donations in her memory may be made to the MacDougall Sportsman Club at 3800 MacDougall Rd., Waterloo, NY 13165.
