Obituary

Joyce Halterman Caplinger, 84, of Springfield, Virginia, passed away on August 11, 2023 at Harmony at Spring Hill in Lorton, VA, where she resided, with her family by her side.

She was born July 29, 1939 in Mathias, WV to Moses B. and Mary Ann Halterman and grew up the youngest of ten children on her parents' farm in West Virginia.  She graduated from Broadway High School in 1958 and a few months later married Franklin Caplinger of Mathias, WV.

Joyce and Frank lived in Broadway where she worked as a secretary prior to settling in Northern Virginia to raise their family.  Joyce held many jobs over the years including managing and owning the Saratoga Hallmark in Springfield, Virginia for almost thirty years before closing the business to spend more time with her family.  She continued working part-time as a dental billing specialist until she was 80.   Although she spent her time working, her greatest purpose in life was her family, especially her four grandchildren.  She loved attending their school and sporting events, volunteering at their schools and church, traveling, baking, and bowling.

She is preceded in death by her husband of 58 years Frank, daughter-in-law Laura, her parents, siblings and other family members.

She is survived by her children Eric Caplinger (Kimi) and Lisa Keyes (Steve), grandchildren Katie & Adam Caplinger and Tyler & Lindsey Keyes, many nieces & nephews and friends.
