Services were held April 14 in the Wesleyan Church of Hamburg for Joyce Anderson, a UB Career Planning and Placement associate, who died April 9 when she was struck by a pickup truck while walking with her husband along Ward Road in the Town of Boston. She was 42.

Mrs. Anderson's husband, Mark, 46, who suffered massive internal injuries, remains in serious condition in Erie County Medical Center.

State Police said the Andersons were walking a short distance from their home when they were struck by a truck that swerved to avoid a dog on the road.

A graduate of Hilbert College, she held a bachelor's degree in communications and a master's degree in career counseling from UB.
