Joyce Schmeeckle performs research evaluation for nonprofits and government grants which has allowed her to be expose to the many good people in our community.
She has been married to Bill for 43 years. They have a son in Lincoln and a daughter in Florida. And, they have 2 grandchildren.
 
Why is she in Rotary? Well it is always the people. But Joyce also loves the purpose and mission of Rotary. There is no other service organization that checks all of the boxes.
 
She shared that the first time she performed in marching bank was at Nebraskaland Days. She did not successfully dodge all of the horse manure. And, even with here soiled white tennis shoes she had enough nerve to walk up to get an autograph from Ken Curtis who played Festis on Gunsmoke.
