Janet Ward Campbell (nee Cliff) - Died on September 14, 2016 at 9:30 p.m. at her home in Vancouver surrounded by family. Janet was a voracious reader, amazing cook, world traveller, wonderful hostess, fantastic grandmother, and a generous but sometimes stubborn woman. Janet is predeceased by her son, Malcolm Cliff Campbell; and her beloved husband, Bill Campbell. She is survived by her daughter, Margaret Campbell; son, Angus Campbell; and her dear grandson, Nathaniel Law. The family would like to thank Dr. D. McLachlan for her kindness, humour and compassion; and the nurses of Evergreen Nursing who took care of Janet with special recognition to Maryam and Deborah who made Janet's last day comfortable and peaceful. A special thanks to Hal Houlding for marshalling and guiding the family in a difficult time. A memorial service will be held at Christ Church Cathedral located at 690 Burrard Street, Vancouver on Saturday, September 24 at 4:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations to the Tweedledum Foundation c/o Genus Capital Management 860 - 980 Howe Street, Vancouver, BC, V6Z 0C8.

Janet, you were such a wonderful, generous person. Thank you for the gift of flight, for believing in me, and for the sharing your son - my best friend Angus - with me. I think about your kindness (and your abruptness!) often, and both qualities make me smile. You are truly missed.

Maggie and Angus. So sorry to hear about your mom passing. Always enjoyed great conversations with her (& your dad)
All the best Judy Funnell

Maggie and Angus, it has been too long since I saw Janney.. I haven't seen her since I bought the farm... we spoke a few times and she was going to visit. I have thought of her often. I know she was very proud of her children. If ever you need an older voice or to come and pat a horse, I am here for you.
Love and hugs
