For many years Janice and I were bridge partners. I learned more about bidding from her and she learned more about the play of the hand from me. I am very saddened by her passing and look forward to her Celebration of Life. My deepest condolences to her family.

I met Janice almost two years ago when we had just joined The Village. She participated in the Short Story Discussion Group and the Classic Films Group. My husband, Torry, and I joined both groups. Janice was an active participant and I enjoyed getting to know her through her shared perceptions and knowledge as well as her references to her own life. She often spoke of her grandchildren and projected the proud grandmother. She was warm, kind, and caring, curious and interested in the opinions of others.
This is a sad time for the family and friends. The loss of such a dear and loved family member is so difficult . I feel lucky to have had her touch my life and will surely miss her. I look forward to her Celebration of Life. May her memory be for a blessing.

Sincerely.
