Janice (Dennis) Vorro, of East Providence, RI and formerly Bristol, RI passed away peacefully on October 23, 2025 at the age of 79.

Born on September 11, 1946 in Fall River, MA, Janice lived a life marked by compassion, strength, and unwavering dedication to her family. After the passing of her beloved husband, Andrew, she faced life's challenges with remarkable grace and courage, raising their three children-Jennifer, Nancy and Peter -with love, faith, and determination.

Janice will be remembered for her wit, her laughter, and the kindness she shared with everyone she met. She was a devout Catholic, serving various parishes as a CCD teacher and adult sacrament instructor. Janice was also an avid reader and she loved watching Law and Order.
