Jana Jeanelle Ross, 47, of Spring Lake, NC, passed away unexpectedly in her home on 20 November 2025.
Born May 3, 1978, in San Antonio, TX, she was the daughter of Dena and Gary Stripling and the late Donald Scott.

Jana possessed a deep sense of love and commitment to her family and friends and will be forever missed by those who knew her.
