Elliott "Buddy" M. Joyner graduated to his heavenly home with Jesus on April 18, 2021.
Born in Suffolk, VA, on March 12, 1945 to Elliott "Joe"(d) and Florine Joyner (d), Buddy lived in Suffolk for many years before moving to Waynesboro, VA, at age 72.
He retired from a career at International Paper as the Power Plant Manager. Buddy attended Westminster Presbyterian Church for several decades, serving as an elder, missions committee leader, and Sunday school teacher and most recently was a member of Covenant Presbyterian Church in Harrisonburg, VA. His love for sharing the gospel with others took him around the world, doing missions work in Ukraine, Senegal, Mexico, India, Peru, and Chile. Helping and discipling others was a way of life for Buddy, who lead countless Bible studies and mentored many. Farming and raising beef cattle on his farm in Waynesboro with his family was a dream fulfilled for him. He ran the race well and was a good and faithful servant.
