CAILIN MARY JOYCE, age 19, passed away on December 4, 2025. Cherished daughter of Sean M. Joyce and Terese M. Joyce (nee Sekerak); loving sister of Sean P. Joyce; dear granddaughter of Vincent and the late Charlotte Joyce and Barbara and the late James Sekerak; beloved niece of Chris Joyce (Kelley Meden); Mark Joyce, Frank Joyce (Alecia), James Sekerak, Gerard Sekerak (Fina); and Edward Sekerak (Heather); cousin of Lily, Mark, Maddox, Colin, Andrew, Jacob, Evan, Autumn, and Jozef. Cailin is also survived by her buddy, Jake the dog.
Cailin lived life to the fullest and was a light to so many in her far too short life. She lived her Catholic faith and shared it with many. Not by pushing, but by attracting them through her bright bright light. A saint among us, Cailin moved mountains with her fight and going “full out." The purest soul and loving sister to older brother Sean. Always supporting him in the stands and giving the biggest hugs. She is now a guardian angel to us. Cailin is now dancing in heaven and her love will never fade. No more pain and suffering, just love.
The best daughter a parent could wish for. The world lost the brightest of lights.
