Boyce was born May 14, 1941 in the Mountain View Community, to Herbert Jones and Alma (Crisp) Jones. Boyce was a well-known, well respected businessman in our community. At the time of his passing he had owned B and H Auto Parts since 1972. He had also owned a Chrysler dealership and had been an over the road truck driver and owned and operated his own gravel truck. He was a longtime, faithful member of the Day Ridge United Baptist Church, where he served as a deacon for over 45 years.
Boyce married Norma Ross, on May 16, 1961 and they began their life of 59 years together. They raised three children, Donna, Debra, and Steve. Boyce was a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather. His family was precious to him and he loved spending time with them, especially his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
He is survived by his wife, Norma, children, Donna West of Oneida, Debra Carver, and her husband, Joe, also of Oneida, and Steven Jones, and his wife, Felicia of Smithtown, six grandchildren, Jacob Carver and his wife, Carissa, Rachel West, Lacey Massengale, and her husband, Adam, Griffin West, Noah and Luke Jones, great-grandchildren, Sadie Belle and Oakleigh Massengale, two brothers, Herbert Jones Jr, and wife, Ruth, of Florida and Jerry Jones and wife, Angie, of Illinois, sister, Patricia Roy and husband, James, of Pine Knot and a couple Boyce considered family, Murton and Phyllis Wilson.

Boyce’s faith has ended in sight. We find comfort in his testimony and the exemplary Christian life he lived.
