Janice was a lifelong resident of the Carpenter’s Campground Community and was loved by all that met her. Her smile and laughter could light up a room. She was a 1969 graduate of Everett High School where she met the love of her life and partner of 57 years. She was a stay at home mom for many years but went back to work at Sears where she made many friends. In 1996 she started working as a cashier at Wal-Mart and was a loyal employee until her retirement in 2017. After retirement, Janice loved spending time with her family, walking the Greenbelt Park, decorating for every holiday, gardening, and working in the yard.
A celebration of life will be held at Pearson Springs Pavilion Sunday November 19, 2023, from 1-3 PM. This will be a casual gathering of friends and family.
