Obituary: Joyce Elsie Cauthen
We would like to share with our family and friends that our beloved mother, Joyce Elsie Cauthen, passed through Heaven’s Gate Tuesday morning, Jan. 17, 2018.
Joyce, a wonderful woman, was born in Roaring Springs, Texas, on Feb. 16, 1930, to RC and Trilby Anderson. She married John Thomas Cauthen (Tommie) on June 15, 1948. They shared 63 years in a loving union until his death in 2011.

Over the years, Joyce opened her home and heart to many other children.
Joyce was an Ash Fork Schools employee as well as a graduate, as were her children and five of her grandchildren.
