IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Malcolm W.
Joy
September 13, 1936 – June 10, 2024
Malcolm W. Joy, lifetime resident of Union, NH passed away June 10, 2024, at Mountain View Community Nursing Home, Ossipee, NH after a long illness.
Malcolm was born September 13, 1936, in Rochester, NH, son of Lester E. Joy and Marian E. Wentworth Joy. After his mother's death, Lester married Gladys Horn who raised Malcolm as her own—known to Malcolm as "Mom".
He graduated from Nute High School, Milton, NH in 1954 and served in the US Army. After returning home, for most of his life, he worked with his father in the commercial family blueberry business harvesting up to 20 ton of blueberries in a season.
During his younger years, Malcolm enjoyed hunting, golfing, baseball, bowling, his dogs, playing cards and family time.
He was a Member of the Masons, Unity Lodge No. 62, Union, NH.
Malcolm was never married and is pre-deceased by his father, Lester E.Joy and both "mothers" Marian and Gladys Joy; his brother George W. Joy; as well as his nephew Michael R. Joy.
He is survived by his brother and sister-in-law Leslie E. Joy and Nancy P. Joy; nephew George L. Joy and wife Billi G. Joy and their son Connor Joy; as well as numerous cousins.
The family would like to thank the staff at Mountain View Nursing Home, especially those on the Green Mountain Unit, for their care of Malcolm for five years. They gave cheerfully of their time while caring for him—taking time to play cards with him while bedridden even when they could have taken a personal "break". We will be forever grateful for their making his time with them the best it could be.
