• Notater

  Joyce Doreen Lillian NISSEN (daughter of Hans Johannes Trules NISSEN and Florence Harriet SWARZES/MATTHEWS) was born 14 March 1915 Paddington, NSW. In 1929, when she turned 14, Joy found a job in a milk bar, and moved out of home. When the family moved to Point Clare she got a job at a boarding house in Gosford. At the age of 17 she and her sister, Kitty, joined a local revue called ‘The Scandals of 1932’. In 1934 she got a live-in domestic job in Vaucluse in Sydney. On 7 November 1936 in St Brigid’s Church, Marrickville, she married Arthur Daniel SMYTHE. They met as a blind date at a dance. Joy became a Catholic before she married. Arthur worked as a fitter and turner. During the war he worked for the Aircraft Production Commission at Redfern, making parts for Australian war planes. Afterwards he worked as a foreman in a firm making poker machines. They moved to Bondi in 1941. They had three children, Jan, Patricia and Stephen. Joy and Arthur had a joyful celebration of their sixtieth wedding anniversary in 1996. With the aid of her three sisters she helped look after her mother and stepfather as they got older. She also was a great support for her sisters and brothers over many years. Her great sadness was the death of her son, Stephen, at the age of 46. Joy was the proud grandmother of four grandchildren. She collapsed at home in Bondi on 25 September 1999 while listening to the races and died a short while later. Her funeral Mass was in St Anne’s in Bondi Beach. She is buried at Waverley cemetery. Arthur lived in the house in Bondi till the beginning of 2004 when he moved to a hostel. He died at the end of that year.
