I worked with Janice for over twelve years and she was an awesome work partner and an even better friend. Janice was funny and she always had a kind word for those around her. She was one of the kindest people I ever knew. Janice was also a true lady. I will miss my friend and I will miss hearing her comforting voice. Her family is in my prayers in the hopes that they can move forward after such a tragic loss. We will all miss our friend.

Janice was a DOLL...we knew each other since Junior High School and kept in touch. I will really miss her. A sweet spirit, contagious laugh, a smile so bright, with a little body and a deep voice :). Her mother is awesome and raised a great woman. Her husband was dedicated to her. I am praying for the Anderson/Armstrong family. Sincerely, Emily
