In Memory of Joyce Watkins September 21, 1931 - August 14, 2018 The Maltese Club of Greater Miami is saddened with the loss of one of our founding members, Joyce Watkins. She was also a longtime member of the American Maltese Association, the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America, and many All-breed clubs in South Florida. The Marcris legacy began with the prefix that came from the names of her two children, Mark and Cristie. Joyce openly admitted I have to breed a pretty dog because I m not a great groomer. The Marcris lines were soon highly sought after by many top breeders and today can be found in pedigrees worldwide. Throughout the years, Joyce mentored many new breeders and she shared the best she had, always wanting to represent the Marcris name with quality in the ring. Joyce contributed many ideas that shaped the American Maltese Association. She was instrumental in the enactment of the Open Air Policy which now affects the operation of the AMA board. In addition, she initiated the adoption of the Record of Merit (ROM) and the Record of Merit Excellent (ROMX) Awards. Joyce is the breeder of countless champions, and many that bear the distinctions of ROM, ROMX, Best in Specialty Show and Best in Show. She also achieved the YTCA Breeder of the Year Award for 1990 and the highly prestigious AMA Platinum Breeder of the Year Award for 1991 through 1998. The membership additionally honored Joyce by selecting her as the AMA Sweepstakes judge for the 25 th Anniversary National Specialty. And Joyce certainly will always be fondly remembered for her prowess on the dance floor at many of these events that celebrated this white passion. 2 15
