She was proceeded in death by two sisters and one brother.

Janice was the Matriarch of her family and nothing was more important to her. She lived in Cudahy for over 45 years and met many amazing friends along the way. Many of the friends she met at Andrea's Restaurant she considered family.

The family will hold a private graveside service.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to one of her favorite charities (even though there are so many):

ASPCA and The Wounded Warriors Project

A Celebration of Life will be determined at a later date.
