Joyce COMFORT Obituary

Died peacefully in Ōamaru on 18 November 2024 at the age of 81 after a short illness. Joyce was an amazing cook, an avid gardener, an adventurer, a DIY home renovator and a loving mum and grandmother. She was the constant companion of Bruce Comfort, her husband of nearly 60 years. She was loved by her daughters Venise and Tia, and her grandsons Cy, and Ethan. Her family in Auckland, the USA, and China were always close to her heart. Joyce's wish was for a private cremation, with no service or floral tributes. Please keep Joyce in your thoughts next time your garden produces flowers, fruit, or vegetables.

Goodbye England's rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself
Where lives were torn apart
You called out to our country
And you whispered to those in pain
Now you belong to heaven
And the stars spell out your name

[Chorus]
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset
When the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here
Along England's greenest hills
Your candle's burned out long before
Your legend ever will

[Verse 2]
Loveliness we've lost
These empty days without your smile
This torch, we'll always carry
For our nation's golden child
And even though we try
The truth brings us to tears
All our words cannot express
The joy you brought us through th

Dear Bruce and family
With Our Sympathy at this very sad time
No one else can truly feel
The sorrow that you bear -
Still, may it help somehow today
To know how much we care...
And may it help to ease your loss
And bring some comfort, too,
To know our many thoughts are there
In sympathy with you
Thinking of you...
Lots Of Love John and Shirley Stewart
