Held September 27, 2026 at Ashkenaz in Berkeley, and on Zoom
This tribute to the joyful, generous, forever kind and inclusive Joyce Clyde included a formal remembrance and sharing of her life, followed by an evening of live music and dancing, led by some of Joyce's favorite bands. It was an incredibly moving experience for all.
Thanks to everyone who came together both in person and on Zoom to celebrate, honor, and remember this remarkable woman. A recording of the event will be available soon.
