Joyce Lindsey Lawson

Joyce Lindsey Lawson, 87 of Bearden, AR left this world for her heavenly home on September 3, 2023. She was born on December 9, 1935 in Bearden, AR. Joyce lived a simple life, often meeting the needs of other's before her own. Her life's mission was to care for others. That’s one of the many reasons she became a nurse.
To know her was to love her! The most kind, generous, loving woman to ever live!
Joyce taught us so much over the years, how to be patient, how to love fiercely, how to find joy in the moment with people you love. Growing up, her house was a revolving door. She always had company because everyone loved her, and she loved everyone. God sure broke the mold with her!

Joyce is preceded in death by her husband, Oscar Lawson, sisters Ann Schrab and Jane Richmond, brother Farris Lindsey, son Johnny Lawson and daughters Barbara Harville, and Sara Lawson and grandson Mickey Doherty. She leaves behind her sons Lewis Lawson, Donald Lawson and daughters Connie Quimby and Patti Womack, 19 grandchildren, 49 great grandchildren and 4 great great grandchildren and a host of many more family and friends.

The family will receive friends Monday from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Benton Funeral Home in Bearden. Graveside services will be 2:00 p.m. Tuesday at Salem Cemetery. Arrangements are by Benton Funeral Home of Bearden/Fordyce. To sign the online register visit www.bentonfuneralhome.net .
