Not sure what to say?

Janice was a favorite of mine. Once on a stop at Adak, she dug up a plant there at the airport and gave it to me to give to Katherene, my spouse, which I brought back to Anchorage. The plant is sitting just off our deck at the house and it blooms every spring which always brings Janice to mind. She was so kind that way. Roger and Katherene (Orth) Showers.

Janice was my guiding light when I was a stewardess for Reeve Aleutian Airways in early 1970's flying the enchanting Aleutians. I am sad I will not be able to reconnect with her during my first trip back to Alaska this year...hopefully if Covid-19 allows travel to resume. Janice always was kind and professional, with an engaging enjoyment for life. I'll never forget our quest to find a Puffin egg!


I lived and worked in Cold Bay in the 1960s for RAA and got to know Janice and her family quite well during that time. There was no doubt that she was special even at that young age. Condolences to the family and RIP,Janice.

I met Janice while working for Reeve Aleutian Airways on Adak, Ak. 1986-1989.
Lot of great memories. RIP Janice

A legend to all who knew her. I had the pleasure of knowing Janice as a friend, colleague and collaborator with Wien Airlines back in the 80s inflight safety. Met her on my first (DC-6) RV trip to St Paul Island as a tourist 1970. We of course weathered in for a number of days...friendships bloom on the Chain like this all the time, in this case a lifetime.

Janice is forever in memory. She welcomed this old military guy, late to the world of commercial aviation at RAA, with warmth and humor. I loved the office banter with her..I could always get an hearty laugh out of the corniest of puns. She welcomed us to her Cold Bay castle...what a treasure to the history of Alaska and the world of aviation...it should be transported in whole to the Smithsonian! Fun..fun..fun lady! And now dear Janice...may the God of all mercy transport you into His...

I met Janice in 4th grade at Denali Elementary and she invited me home to meet her ducks. We graduated from AHS in 1961 and attended UAF for the next four years. She was so bright and such fun...

We knew Janice while students at UAF, and later flew with her many times while teaching on St.George and St. Paul. It was always a pleasant flight with her on board. Bill, Genie and Steff Browne
