After college Joyce applied to Continental Airlines as a stewardess back in the old DC-3 days. It was during this time that Joyce met and married Bob Wampler; a pilot with Continental who passed away August 30, 2008. Joyce and Bob had four children; John (b. 1956) Susie (b. 1958) Nancy (b. 1962) Tom (b. 1967).
