Joyce Murphy Adams
November 8, 1941 - December 7, 2023
Obituary
Funeral Service for Joyce Murphy Adams, age 82, of Decatur, will be held Sunday, December 10, 2023 at 2:00 PM at Shelton Funeral Home Chapel. Visitation will be from 12:00PM to 2:00PM prior to the service. Burial will be at Roselawn Cemetery.
She was born to Boyd Evon Murphy and Lois Earline Compton Murphy on November 8, 1941 in Alabama.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husband Charlie Adams, grandson, Neal Cagle, sister, Dorothy Baham, and brother, Kenneth Murphy.
She is survived by her son, Jeff Cagle (Assima), stepson, Brooks Adams, daughters, Jennifer Roberts, Christy Wentz (Gary), stepdaughter, Carol Adams, four sisters, Helen Lowery, Betty Tashjian, Judy Miller (Gary), Vickie Lofton, (John), brother, Roger Murphy, five grandchildren, Brandon Thrasher (Colleen), Allyson Gilliam (Mark), Abby Cagle, Sophie Cagle, Max Cagle, step- grandchildren, Noah Adams, Rebecca Adams, and Elizabeth Cundiff.
To know Joyce was to love her. She never met a stranger and was always interested in everyone she met. Her kind, genuine, sweet nature was shared with all who knew her.
Her love of travel carried her all over the world but the most important thing to her was not the destination or the journey, it was the love she had for her family. Nothing meant more to her than bringing everyone together any chance she could. She will be greatly missed beyond measure and we will always love her to the moon and back.
