I feel your pain. There's nothing is in this world more painful than the loss of a loved one. Janice is no longer suffering, and is in the hands of our Heavenly Father, watching over her loved ones. Try to be strong. God will not put us through more than we can withstand. Janice will be missed but there will always be the memories that can never be taken away.
Take care and may God bless you all.

At this difficult time may God comfort you all. Janice was a hard worker. She was a strong woman and fought a long battle, but God knew it was time to ease her pain and bring her home to him. I will truly miss her, but will cheerish the memories and time spent together.

Life took Janice and I in different directions but my heart will always remember her. Our mothers were the best of friends and we followed in their footsteps. We named our only children after the Jacksons; her son Torey and my daughter Toya(her idea). I can see and hear her laughing and remember her with fondness. I will keep her family my prayers

Dear Family,
May the Comforter be very near you during this time of sorrow and give you peace in knowing Janice is with the Lord. She was a wonderful example to all of her co-workers by demonstrating her love, care, kindness and gentle ways. We'll miss her "but only for a season" before we'll all be together again. "We love you, Janice"

Although we only had Janice in our lives for a short period of time she became one of my truly best friends. We visited daily and compared our stories of our Grandchildren and stories they were. She will be greatly missed by all. May the family and friends of Janice be comforted by the fact that she is in heaven watching over all of us. Rest in peace Janice. We love you!
