Her family is mourning the passing of Fairborn, Ohio, resident Mrs. Joyce Hanna, 82, on Saturday, January 19. She was preceded in death by her husband, Col. Max E.

Williams of Dayton, Ohio, and Carolyn Y. Fucillo and Winthrop, Mass. Her 11 grandchildren, Max and Amy Hanna, Anthony, James, and Jenny Fucillo, Jamie, Hannah and Adam Williams, and Jamie, Jonathan and Shayna Feinour sorely miss her, as does her dog, Max. A sister, Pamela Hollis and a brother, Lionel Frusher, both of Great Britain, also survive her. Ms. Hanna was born in England but raised in India, the daughter of an officer in the British Army. She worked as a registered nurse in London during World War II where she met her husband, Max, a B-26 pilot. In addition to raising her children and leading a demanding life as the wife of an air force officer, Ms. Hanna spent more than 45 years as a professional volunteer. She first began her volunteer efforts at Kelly AFB, Texas, where she served in the former Dependents Assistance program. In Tachikawa, Japan, she began work in Family Services, an air force family assistance program, and continued this work for more than 30 years, accumulating more than 13,000 hours at the various bases her husband was stationed. She served ten terms as Family Services Emergency Chairperson and held virtually all positions in this organization during her tenure. Another project was the Officer's Wives Club Thrift Shop, which she chaired for many years. Ms. Hanna also volunteered for more than 25 years for the special needs children camp at Wright Patterson AFB, Children Have A Potential (CHAP). A highlight of her volunteer career came at the close of the Vietnam War when she coordinated the efforts of area volunteers assisting returning POWs and their families when they were reunited at Wright-Patterson AFB. For all her volunteer efforts she received many awards, citations and commendations including being chosen military-wife-of-the-year for Wright-Patterson AFB, being named as a finalist for nationwide Air Force wife of the year and being nominated as Dayton Women of the year. Joyce Hanna was also an active member of Christ Episcopal Church in Xenia, Ohio, and was beloved by the parishioners.
