Janice Suber McNair

She was born on the 30th of September 1936 in McCormick, South Carolina to Gladys Anita (Folk) and Robert Daniel Suber, who both precede her in death. Janice is also preceded in death by her loving husband and partner, Robert C. “Bob” McNair in 2018.

Along with many extended family and friends, and her Houston Texans family, Janice is survived by her four children, sixteen grandchildren, eighteen great-grandchildren, and another great-grandchild on the way any day now, who will all miss her greatly.

After growing up in Orangeburg, South Carolina, Janice graduated from Columbia College before marrying Robert C. “Bob” McNair and ultimately relocated their family to Houston, Texas in 1960. It is here where Janice and Bob embarked on a lifelong career of philanthropy by generously giving back to the community. Mrs. McNair was the Co-Founder and Senior Chair of the Houston Texans.
