Condolences & Memories (13 entries)

• When moving to Winnipeg, Janice helped me do my taxes and I had a fun time talking to her. She seemed happy go lucky and I looked forward to seeing her every time tax season came along. I just found out that she passed and it shocked me. Thank you Janice for helping me over the past few years. I will never forget your cheery smile and good humour. - Posted by: Danny De Souza (Client) on: Apr 02, 2022

• I’m so sorry for your great loss of Janice. I worked with her and every season I would check to see where she was teaching and follow her. She was the best teacher and was so knowledgeable and very patient. She would go out of her way to help anyone. She loved her job but her family always came first. She was so proud of all her kids. She will be greatly missed but definitely not forgotten. My thoughts and prayers are with the family, RIP my friend. - Posted by: Saskia Ferwerda (Co-worker) on: Jun 28, 2021

• I have known Janice since high school at Gordon Bell. I will always remember her as being so kind and generous with her time and heart. We met up in our adult years with her working as a community liaison at GB our former alma mater and I at RaY we shared a mutual concern for a youth our programs had in common. I was privileged to know her ❤️ heart.. which was enormous. My condolences to her husband and her children. Gone to soon. You sure do not meet people like her everyday. God speed - Posted by: Kelly Holmes (Friend ) on: Jun 26, 2021

• Sending my sincerest sympathies to Kenny, Harley, London, Layne, Mr C and Monique. I moved to Winnipeg when I was 10 and Janice lived 2 doors down. She marched over and introduced herself and we were inseparable for 7 years. We had so many incredible experiences growing up together and for that I am truly grateful. I wish I would have told her how much her friendship meant to me then. I am so heartbroken for her family and friends and wish that the beautiful memories you have will bring you some comfort.

• I first new Janice as a client at H&R block. We got to talking and discovered my aunt and uncle were her aunt and uncle also, much to both our surprise. I loved her wit, sarcasm, friendliness and if we had more time I’m sure we could have been good friends. My deepest condolences to her dad, husband and children. She talked about you all the time. I will truly miss her, may she rest in peace. - Posted by: Anita Raposo (Client and distant relative) on: Jun 26, 2021

• This woman gave true definition to the meaning selfless. Everything she did was for her family both blood and chosen. If you were lucky enough to be one of her chosen you know exactly what I'm talking about. Janice taught me so much about life, logic, parenting.....even sarcasm. She definitely showed me how to use it appropriately. I never really took a hard look at our relationship, but this woman was like a second mother to me. I'll forever miss her. - Posted by: Christy Orr (Lifelong friend ) on: Jun 23, 2021
