Janet Meyer Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Brenner Mortuary Funeral & Cremation Services on Jan. 20, 2026.
Janet Lynn Meyer, 73, of Pittsburg, KS, was called home to be with the Lord on January 17, 2026, at Mercy Hospital in Pittsburg, Kansas.
Janet was born on February 27, 1952, to Lewis Charles and Elsie Mae (Kroenke) Stoll in Brazilton, Kansas. She attended Immanuel Lutheran Church Grade School and graduated from Girard High School. She married Gilbert Meyer on October 24, 1970. They later divorced.
Janet was a homemaker and enjoyed puzzles and crocheting items to donate to those in need, as well as spending time with her family and friends. She worked for many years at Eastside Cafe, a place where many people came to know her well. She also volunteered at Countryside Christian School, where several of her grandchildren attended. She had an incredibly generous heart and was there for anyone who needed her. She was also famously stubborn - a quality that made her unforgettable.
She is survived by a son, Ted Meyer (Shawna) of Topeka, KS; three daughters, Tracy Atkinson (Chuck) of Dearborn, MO, Becky Nicklaus (Shannon) of Pittsburg, KS, Jennifer Muckala (TJ Barnow) of Pittsburg, KS; two sisters, Joyce Hayward (Jerry) of McCune, KS and Patty Good of Schertz, TX; grandchildren: Joe Meyer (Heather), Orin Meyer, Wyatt Meyer, Shay Meyer, Conner McLendon, Maura McLendon, William Atkinson, Sydney Nicklaus (Reece Watson), Evan Nicklaus, Alex Muckala, Jackson Muckala, Rylinn Girth-Barnow, Brynnley Girth-Barnow, and great grandchildren: Mac Meyer and Emmitt Watson.
She is preceded in death by her parents and three sisters, Betty Garrett, Wilma Sandlin, and Vonne Kmiec.
The family will receive visitors on Saturday, January 31st, 2026, from 1:30 to 3:30 PM at Brenner Mortuary in Pittsburg, KS. A private family burial will be held at a later date. Memorial donations can be made to Angels Among Us. Arrangements are under the direction of the Brenner Mortuary, 114 E. 4th St., Pittsburg, KS.
