Joyce Ann Rea

Devoted and loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and best friend, Joyce Ann Rea returned home to our Heavenly Father on May 21, 2025. Long-time resident of Bear Lake, Idaho, (1977-2018), Joyce passed peacefully from her Twin Falls residence surrounded by the love of her family and friends. She joins her lifelong husband (Jack), eldest son (Gene), and many other of her beloved family and friends. She is also mother to Cory Rea (Misty) and Kelly Rea, grandmother to Miakoda Lively (McKenzie), step grandmother to Suni (Travis), and step great grandmother to London Kennedy, and sister to Fred Kuck (Bernie), aunt to their children and grandchildren.

Joyce lived true to her name. Full of joy and giving joy to everyone around her. She lived, loved, and gave with her whole heart, unconditionally and without hesitation. An infallible beacon of light and a rock for her family and friends, she will be dearly missed.

A small service will be held at Montpelier Cemetery at her family plots.

Continuing her life of selflessness and kindness, Joyce asked that anyone wishing to give to her memorial, please donate to your local animal shelter, place of worship, or however you feel you can best help others.
