The family welcomes friends to a visitation on Wednesday, July 11, 2018 from 5 PM to 7 PM at Hill Crest Memorial Funeral Home.
Janice was born July 29, 1952 in Monroe, LA. While she made her living working side by side with her beloved husband at the business they built (Neal’s Accounting and Tax Specialists), her life was found in the eyes of her family. A hug was not just a hug with Janice. It was impossible to escape her embrace without hearing how much you meant to her and how so very much she loved you. As the self-appointed “hug patrol” at church, she made sure her church family knew they were loved also. After a lifetime of demonstrating the love of Christ, she now finds herself in the loving embrace of her savior. Janice passed peacefully surrounded by family on Sunday, July 8, 2018 at the age of 65.
Janice was preceded in death by; her parents John and Lula Kovac; and brother Doyle Lee.
Left to cherish her memory are her loving husband, Danny Neal; daughter Shelly Milazzo with husband Dennis; son Stephen Neal with wife Nikki; siblings Charles Adcock, Martha Pearson, Betty Philley, Bobby Kovac, Jimmy Kovac and Barbara Criddle; four legged companion, JoJo; grandchildren, Logan Milazzo, Taylor Milazzo, Ambria Neal, Elliot Neal and Lenora Neal; and numerous other nieces, nephews, other family and dear friends.
Serving as pallbearers for Thursday’s servce are Logan Milazzo, Claude Baines, Larry Johnson, Garland Vines, Gabe Downey, and Ken Chinweze.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a donation in her honor to Heart of Hope Ministries, 10420 Heart of Hope Way, Keithville, LA 71047.
