Janice Fowler Obituary
May 5, 1947 - June 23, 2025
Janice Marie Fowler of Kelso, a longtime caregiver and housekeeper, died at age 78 shortly after surgery she hoped would allow her to continue working into her 80s.
The surgery cured back pain from a pinched nerve. A few days later Janice felt well enough to help a longtime client and friend. But soon a sepsis infection sent her back to the hospital, where she died on June 23, 2025.
Janice was a faithful servant of Jesus Christ. She was a selfless, caring and reliable worker who missed a shift only if she was temporarily disabled by an injury.
Her stellar work ethic continued on days off. She would help people selflessly, often providing meals, time and inspiration with a cheerful demeanor. Her life purpose was to be a servant of Christ and bring her children to the Lord. She accomplished both objectives.
Janice was born in Kirkland, Washington, on May 5, 1947. She grew up in Prosser, Washington, with parents Fredrick and Oleta Boylan. She was the youngest of five children. Siblings were Bob, Larry, Ellen and Becky. Only Larry survives her.
Janice married Lonnie Gene Robertson in 1966 and moved to Kelso. They had three children, Bob, Tim and Valerie.
She remarried in 1980 to Bill Fowler and had a daughter, Sarah. Three children survive. Bob Robertson died in April 2023.
Janice requested no memorial service.

She was always a wealth of knowledge. She was great in her Christian faith. So many times when I needed prayer she was there for me and it worked amazingly well due to her diligence and her faith in God. She always took care of everybody else she put herself aside to always take care of everyone else no matter who they were or how they needed it she was The Rock and the anchor for her family and friends. She was greatly loved and will be greatly missed. she is celebrating her life with Jesus and I know she's still looking down on us taking care of us. I love you auntie

I spent time with my Aunt Janice and her family often when I was a kid. They lived next door for a while. They were great friends. Janice did my hair and I loved it. She was always so pretty and nice. I loved her.
