Joyce Nadine Zielke (Murant), woman of perpetual motion, died peacefully on June 29, 2023 after a long illness at the age of 84. Joyce is predeceased by her husband and best friend of 49 years, David Zielke.

Joyce graduated from West High School Class and was a proud member of the Class of 1960 Rochester General Hospital Nursing School. Nursing was her passion.

We are grateful to all of those who have offered comfort and support.
