The Ionia Sentinel-Standard, May, 2009

Joycelyn Jean Chase, aged 79 years, and recently of Grand Rapids, passed 
suddenly on May 27, 2009.  Joy, as she was familiarly known by family and 
friends, was born Jan. 25, 1930 in Lowell, the daughter of Myron A. and Gladys 
E. (Callier) Kyser.  Growing up in Boston Twp., she was a great-granddaughter 
of one of Berlin Twp’s earliest pioneer families.  Joy went on to graduate 
from Lowell High School in 1948.  She soon joined the U.S.A.F. during the 
Korean conflict where she later met and married Richard T. Chase of Maine, 
also serving in the U.S.A.F.  Their marriage was performed at Langley Field, 
Va. Dec. 4, 1953.  Mr. and Mrs. Chase, following their enlistments, pursued 
their happiness in Saranac and Ionia prior to moving to California—where they 
lived until their retirement and returned to Michigan.

From this union three sons were born, all of whom survive: Terry of 
California, Kim (Sue) of Lowell and Scott (Maureen) of California.  Also to 
mourn their loss is her loving husband of 56 years; sister Toni Haller of 
Lowell; five grandchildren; two great-grandchildren and several nieces, 
nephews and cousins.  She was preceded in death by sister Madeline Vickery 
Speckin in 2001.

With due accords to her wishes, cremation has taken place.  Family and friends 
are all encouraged to meet with family at Lake Funeral Home in Saranac between 
4 to 6 p.m., May 31, 2009 with a memorial service set at 11 a.m. June 1, 2009, 
Rev. Kenneth Harger officiating.  Her memory we shall always keep.
