To the Ferguson Family,
Janice was a wonderful person who always stopped to say a few words whenever we met. A former classmate and fellow church member she will be remembered, by me, for having a good natured personality.
May God bless and keep you in your darkest hour.

Heartfelt condolences for Janice family including her extended-family, namely Juanita Sullivan. We have kept in contact with Janice and Juanita for several years and always looked forward to hearing how they both enjoyed life, family, and their time together. Laughter seemed to be the most helpful medicine for them both. In my thoughts.........Sheri from Gerling Law Office, Evansville, Indiana.
