The 84-year-old's car was involved in a collision with a bus on the Clooney Road in Ballykelly after 14:15 BST on Thursday.
Rev Phillip Houston, of Ballykelly Presbyterian Church, told 成人快手 News NI that Joyce was a popular member of the choir and other church groups.
He said Joyce was a "joy to be around" and that "she was a core part of our church family".
"She was a fantastic singer in the choir and was a real light," he said.

"We wanted a place for people to come and comfort one another and also provide a space where people could share memories of Joyce," he said.
