Janet Cecil Obituary
She was born on February 5, 1954, in Salisbury to the late Billie Joe Wilson and Mabel Doane Wilson. Janet was a 1972 graduate of East Rowan High School and a 1975 graduate of Cabarrus School of Nursing. After 30 years as an RN, she retired from Northeast Medical Center in Concord due to health reasons. During retirement, Janet enjoyed being a homemaker. She was famous for her delicious chocolate pound cake, hashbrown casserole, and cornbread. She also enjoyed spending time at the beach, watching Fox News and football, and taking care of her fur babies. Janet loved the Lord and her family. She will be greatly missed.
