In that relationship, many saw the gentle steadiness and thoughtful spirit that would remain hallmarks of Janice’s life.

For 40 years, Janice was devoted to her loyal husband, James. Together they were true companions and partners, building a life rooted in devotion, patience, and kindness. They raised four children and Janice is survived by numerous grandchildren—each a living continuation of the love, generosity, and gentle wisdom she gave so freely.
Janice was beloved and cherished not only for what she did, but for how she lived: with compassion, selflessness, and a steady courage that inspired others. Even in ordinary moments, her humor could lighten a room, and her loyal heart could make others feel safe, seen, and cared for. Her life leaves a lasting imprint—one of grace, goodness, and enduring love.
