As the partner of Arthur Sock of 17 yrs., I would like to express my condolences to Guy and family. Although I only met with Janice a few times, she radiated warmth, love, and strength. I know through Arthur how she helped him to transform his life and become a more developed and compassionate person. I feel extremely indebted to Janice's caring guidance of my partner, and am extremely grateful for all she has done to help him on his journey through life. She will be
remembered by many.
Respectfully,

My condolences go out to Guy and family as well as friends. Janice was a special person who went beyond the beyond. She helped and touched many lives of which I was one. She and her husband Guy assisted me in getting my driver's license. Janice found my first apartment, and she helped me get into various training programs. She convinced me to do what was correct when I was going in the wrong direction. In a way she was like a mother to me. She was always there for me in an upfront honest way. Her office should be enshrined; it was always open and welcoming to everyone. She will be deeply missed by all of those whose lives she touched, of which there are many. I am very grateful for everything that she did for me. She will be remembered by a whole community.
With heartfelt thoughts,
Arthur Sock

To Guy and Family.
I'm very saddened to hear of your loss. Janice was such a big part of our community. I will miss her terribly. She helped me get my first job out of high school and she helped me enroll in my first college class. She was such a big help to anyone that walked through her door. Sending my condolences to you. -Lisa

To the Falcone Family, so sorry to hear the passing of Janice. She was a great lady and a great educator. She taught me electronics at the Boston Indian Council and was instrumental on getting me my job at Raytheon in Quincy, Ma. She was dedicated to her job and especially her students. I am for ever grateful for that start. I came back home after a couple of years. Please accept my sincere condolences to your family. I cant make it but you will be in my thoughts and prayers. A former student of hers of the 80's

Janice was the first to welcome me to Boston 15 years ago. She introduced me to my current boss. She was there to help me finish up undergrad and she kept me sane while writing my Masters thesis. She was a fierce warrior, and beloved friend. I will miss Janice Falcone.
