JANICE PERONI Obituary

Janice M. Peroni, 64, a gifted painter and photographer of Richland, died Friday, March 25, 2011, surrounded by her family and friends.

She was a graduate of Vineland High School. Following an auto accident in 1965, which resulted in quadriplegia, Janice was introduced to art through her therapy. She obtained a bachelor's degree from Richard Stockton College of New Jersey, and became an accomplished artist, known best for her watercolors and photography. She received many awards and achievements throughout her career.

Janice was predeceased by her parents, Josephine (Travaglia) and Peter Peroni.

She is survived by her aunts, Rose Stampa and Alice Dell'Aringa; and the families, Boyle, Callari, Dandrea, DeRossi, DiPrimio, Giannascoli, Hallenbeck, Higgins, Kirsh, Mahoney, Mazzoli, Mazzoni, Petrini, Renart, Reilly, Seibert and Woolf.

Family members would like to extend a special thank you to all of Jan's caregivers for their daily care and assistance. Those who knew Jan marveled at her ability to embrace life, find new paths for self-expression, and make every moment count. Her strength and courage will always be inspirational, and she remains a precious treasure to her family and friends.

Although I hadn't known Janice that long ,she will always have a special place in my heart. I couldn't wait to go to work on Sundays. I knew she would be there waiting with a smile. She will always be a light in heaven shining down on the ones she loved. And may the memories of Janice be as colorful as she lived her life. She will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

How very sad I am to have heard the news Saturday morning of Janice leaving us. We have been friends since grammar school and just recently had planned a summer outing at her home. She is and always has been an inspiration of courage, beauty and talent that will stay in my heart forever. She has made me a better person for having been her friend. Dance my friend, give your parents a hug from me and know that your angel, that hangs in my home will be a constant reminder of the beautiful angel you now are. I wish I had more of your art. I will miss you my friend. VHS Class of 65 has lost a most talented and beautiful member. You have made the world more beautiful by your presence and your art.

Janice was truly a wonderful person. There will never be a day that I will not think of her. She has touched my life in so many ways over the past couple years. Going to her house never felt like work. I knew I could go there, tell her anything, and then leave for the day always learning something new. She will be very missed.

Jan, you are my hero. I regret all the projects that you will never complete for me, but treasure the ones I have.
I will remember you best in your garden at the end of the day enjoying the serenity. Unfortunately I will not be able to sit and talk to you. My friend, I will miss you. Donna Hensel
