She and Jackie raised two wonderful sons who were the light of her world. She was a wonderful, loving mother. Janice was blessed to ‘nanny’ her grandchildren. Having a hand in their upbringing was a blessing for Janice and the children. Janice had a tender heart and giving soul; she was meek but strong-willed. She, a long-time member of Connection Church, loved God and lived a Christian life daily. Last year she married Mr. Durwin Harrell. The family and friends of this dear lady are devastated by their loss. She will be deeply missed by her many, many friends. Our loss is certainly Heaven’s gain.
