Joyce was born June 10, 1922, in Fayette, Iowa, to Irma Keene Roadman and Earl Alan Roadman. She lived in Waterloo, Iowa, until 1927, and moved to Mitchell, S.D., where her father was president of Dakota Wesleyan University.

She attended the University of Illinois from 1943-44, where she was a member of Gamma Phi Beta Sorority. She graduated from Morningside College, then taught at DePauw University in Greencastle, Ind.

In 1944, she married Gene Paxton Scott in New Bern, N.C., where he was stationed with the U.S. Marine Corps at Cherry Point.

After purchasing a cattle ranch in 1974, they relocated to Danville, Ark.
