Joyce A. (Haynes) Parker passed away peacefully on July 26, 2025, in Port Charlotte, Florida, after a brave fight with Alzheimer's.

Joyce was born on May 22, 1949, in Laconia, the daughter of Neilan (Nick) Haynes and Rita (Godbout) Haynes Freel of Laconia.

Joyce's life was a testament to her hard work and loyalty to those she loved. She had a quick wit, and her feisty spirit brought smiles to family, friends and countless others on her Federal Express route for almost 20 years. Following retirement, Joyce moved from New Hampshire to Colorado for 10 years before settling in Florida.

She loved to go camping, ATV and travel. She absolutely loved her furry friends and spending time volunteering at the animal rescue. She lived life her way which included putting family first, especially her cousin Steve Drouin and his wife Jean, who shared many laughs with their daughters Toni Ann and Jessica.

Joyce is survived by her daughter Chantel Parker Foster, her granddaughter Kayla Foster, her siblings Michael Haynes and Carol Gilbert, nieces and nephews.

Per Joyce’s request, no services will be held. We invite you to remember her for the laughter, kindness and love she brought to our world.
