Joyce Leeming - Communications
Joyce Leeming, a native of Mississippi, attended a Baptist church in her early years. At age 12 her family became members of the Methodist church. She began attending a Presbyterian church while at college and has been a Presbyterian ever since.

She and her husband, Frank, were married in Paoli Presbyterian Church, Paoli, Pa., and share five children and six grand-children. They also lived in Kingsport, Tenn., and Friday Harbor, Wash., in the San Juan Islands before selling their island newspaper and publishing businesses in 1992 and retiring to Hot Springs Village.

The Leemings became members of Presbyterian Kirk in the Pines in 2005. Joyce has served on the Fellowship Committee, Memorial Reception Committee and on the Communications Committee.

She was membership secretary for the Hot Springs Village Community Foundation for seven years and helped found Friends of Small Group Therapy, a support group for clients at a residential care facility for adults with mental illness in Hot Springs.

Joyce enjoys cooking, reading, volunteering at Small Group Therapy, and above all, the warm fellowship at the Kirk.
