A visitation for Janice will be held Thursday, March 9, 2023 from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at Curtis and Son Funeral Home, 1099 1st St NW, Childersburg, Alabama 35044, followed by a memorial service at 3:00 PM. All services will be officiated by Pastor/Chaplain Merlin Wayne Taylor.
Jan was a member of First Baptist Church, Alabaster. She enjoyed hiking at Oak Mountain with her dog, Lucy. Alabama sports (Roll Tide!) were her passion along with NASCAR (Jeff Gordon). Her granddaughters, Laura Frances and Maili were the light of her life. She enjoyed taking them to Yogurt Mountain for treats, going to Veterans park in Alabaster to the playground and having them spend the night with her in her home.
Jan had a passion for animals and owned many over the years including cats, dogs, birds, and fish.
Most of all, Jan loved Jesus, her Lord and Savior. She would want everyone to know and love Him just as she did. All throughout her sickness she never expressed fear but rather excitement at the promise of going home to the Father and gratitude for every day He gave her here on this earth.
