Joyce Scott Lammey, 83 of West Chester, was called home by her Lord on Saturday July 1, 2017.
She was a 1951 graduate of Scott High School in Coatesville, got a degree in Elementary Education from West Chester University in 1955 and a Masters degree in Elementary Counseling from the University of Delaware in 1975. She was employed as an elementary teacher and later an elementary counselor. She loved to travel and was active in Book Club, the Knitting Group and mission work in Atlantic City and Mexico at Covenant Presbyterian Church before her battle with Alzheimer's disease.
She is survived by her husband Frank E. Lammey, three daughters; Terry Bellevou and husband Bob of Gilbertsville, PA, Diane Kleinschmidt of Lusby, MD and Meg Demuth and husband Don of Goshen, KY, four grandchildren; Ryan and Amy Bellevou, Elizabeth (Ellie) and Courtney Demuth, two great grandchildren; Owen and Mason Bellevou, one brother Ronald P. Scott and wife Rosemary of Coatesville and many cousins, nieces and nephews.
She loved children and was always ready to help others in any way that she could. Her smile, her laugh and bright blue eyes were an attraction no one could ignore. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her.
Memorial services are being planned for a later date to be announced.
Arrangements have been entrusted to the Wilde Funeral Home of Parkesburg, PA. Online condolences can be posted at www.wildefuneralhome.com

Joyce's passing
Skip and family.
Sis alerted me that Joyce had passed away and I am just so sorry. I realize the past couple years had been so difficult for her (and for all of you). As you know, I have never not known Joyce - I remember going to Strasburg Road as a very young child, enjoyed her mother's laugh and her father's sense of humor. I also has great memories of going to church camp. I also remember her thoughtfulness and caring when my brother, Charles was killed. My thoughts and sympathy are with all of you. Skip, when I last visited you and Joyce, I was very aware of your patience and awareness of what was happening and your gentleness with Joyce.
I will be in PA the first week of August after our family vacation in Avalon (18 years) and hope to catch up.
Love, Doris
