LAFAYETTE – Joyce Eiler Myers, 76, passed away April 14, 2015, at the St. Elizabeth Hospital in Lafayette.
She was born March 21, 1939, in Warsaw, to Carroll and Marguerite Huffer Eiler, who preceded her in death. On Sept. 3, 1961, in Palestine, she married Harry L. Myers, who survives.
She graduated from Mentone High School. She loved her farm roots, growing up on and later owning an egg farm in northern Indiana.

After the farm, she spent 17 years working for and eventually retiring from the Purdue Employee Federal Credit Union where she served as the executive assistant to the president. She was a member of the Kossuth Street Baptist Church.
Also surviving are a daughter, Angie (and spouse Jeff) Teel, Brookston; a son, Russell (and spouse Jaci) Myers, Lafayette; and two brothers, Doyle  (and spouse Janice) Eiler and Larry (and spouse Ann) Eiler; and a granddaughter, Emily Myers, Lafayette. She was preceded in death by twin grandsons, Adam and Bruce Myers.
Services will be at 10 a.m. Saturday at Kossuth Street Baptist Church, 2901 Kossuth St., Lafayette, with Pastors Paul Briggs and Drew Humphrey officiating. Burial will follow at Chalmers Cemetery.
Calling is from 4 to 7 p.m. Friday at the church.
