Joyce Barko obituary
Posted: 01/22/2018 - by Charlie Narmi
The St. Albert family is saddened to hear of the loss of Joyce Barko who passed away last week after a long, tough battle with cancer. Joyce is the sister of St. Albert parents, grandparents and supporters, Jim Mortensen and Kay Patton (Coach Daley's Mother). Joyce started her academic career at St. Joe's in Neola and eventually was in the first ever graduating class from St. Albert in 1966. Please say a prayer today for the repose of Joyce's soul and please keep her entire Barko and extended family in your prayers at this difficult time...
Eternal rest grant unto Joyce o' Lord: And let perpetual light shine upon her.
May Joyce rest in peace. Amen
May Joyce's soul and the souls of all the faithfully departed through the mercy of God our Father rest in peace. Amen
