Joyce Papps Obituary

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Joyce Papps (Laconia, New Hampshire), who passed away on December 24, 2025, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Joyce Papps to pay them a last tribute.

As we bid Joyce farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Joyce is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.

She was predeceased by: her father Fred Olsen. She is survived by: her mother Eleanor Olsen; her husband Bruce Papps; her children, Debbie Papps (Amy Walsh), Karen Seymour (Michael) and Dexter Smith; her granddaughter Samantha Lyle (Cameron); her sister Judy Floyd (Paul); and her nieces, Kristin and Julie.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Joyce's memory to the Lakes Region Mental Health Center, 40 Beacon Street, Laconia, NH 03246.
