Aunt Janice was like a second mother to me, due in part to proximity but mostly due to her loving friendly nature. As a child and as an adult too, I found her kindness to be unrelenting. I spent many a night at her house. She insisted on cooking, especially for relatives, but she set that aside many times when I’d visit as a kid and wanted to order pizza. I’d trade a year of pizza for one of those home cooked meals now. Despite many a meal, I don’t recall ever seeing a recipe card - she did it from memory. She helped me study for French exams in high school. My second son is named after her late husband Jim, who I remember well. With my own kids, she was just as kind and always tried to keep abreast of their activities. We all will miss her.
Love,
JP, Margie, Garrett and Luke
