Joyce Elaine Schoff (nee Whitman)
1922 – 2020
The family of Joyce Schoff announces that mom passed away at Mainprize Manor, Midale, SK on January 24, 2020 at the age of 97 years.
Joyce “Toodie” was predeceased by her husband Joe Schoff and her son Blaise; parents, George and Irene Whitman; brothers and sisters, Thelma “Sis”, Faye “Tadie”, Dale, Viola “Donnie”, Robert “Bobbie”, Eva “Evie” and Grace “Girlie”. Joyce was also predeceased by her parents-in-law, brothers and sisters in-law.
Her legacy consists of her children and their families, Bruce (Arleen) Schoff; Blaise’s wife Denise and their children, Jeremy, Alysha (Rylie, Braylen and Rosie) Taylor and Jenelle Schoff; Wanda Schoff and her family, Amanda Schoff and Amber (Jess) Graham; Warren (Rhoda) Schoff and their family, Christopher Parent and Josiah (Crystal) (Stellar and Bodhi) Parent.

Joyce was born at home near Outram, SK and took her grade school at Dale School. Joyce was married to Joseph in 1953. Joyce had a strong faith and relationship with God which sustained her throughout her life. She was very “common sense” person with a unique sense of humor. She was notably adventurous as a young woman.
Joyce loved reading before she lost her sight. Some of her other pleasures in life were gardening, homemade preserves, baking and home-cooked meals (learned to cook lots of German recipes) and handiwork like crocheting and knitting. Gramma will be deeply missed by her grandchildren.
Joyce and her family wish to thank all the staff at Mainprize Manor for the exceptional care and love they showed to Joyce and her family.
There was a private family interment at Souris Valley Memorial Gardens. The Come and Go Memorial Tea was held on Saturday, February 1, 2020 from 2:30 p.m.- 4:30 p.m. at the Western Star All Suites Hotel, 303 Kensington Avenue, Estevan, SK.
