Jeanette Shea Bob, it was only tonight I learned of Janie’s passing and was so saddened to hear it. Oh the beautiful memories I have of myself, Janie and Shirley in our younger days. A lot of time has passed since I have seen her but I can assure you I thought of her many times. Janie was indeed a bright light that was extinguished way too soon. Chris and I send our sincere condolences to yourself and your boys and their families at this very sad time. May her beautiful soul rest in peace.

Elaine Waterman Bob and family I am so sorry for your loss. Janie was such a pleasure to be around. I remember back in the day when Janie and my sister Shirley were going to Holy Heart and I was in the Janeway and they took time of from school to visit me. I can still see Janie in her red plaid jacket standing beside my hospital bed and can still hear her awesome laugh. Although I haven’t seen her for a long time I have thought about her often. Rest in peace Janie. You will be missed by many.

Julie Gorman To Uncle Bobby and Brad, Matthew and Mark…..I am at a loss for words and my heart breaks for you all. Aunt Jane was a light, with her beautiful smile and a laugh that drew people in. I’ve missed seeing you both since you left NL but I’m left with the best memories of family gatherings and visits when I always loved seeing you both arrive, because I knew the fun was about to begin! Keeping you all in my thoughts as you navigate through such a unimaginable time.

Rowena Kelloway I am deeply saddened on the tremendous loss to Bob, Brad , Matthew and Mark , their partners and her grandchildren. I know how much she meant to all you and you were her “world”, and of course Little Maggie . I share in your grief and am sending my heartfelt condolences and love to each one of you. She will never ever be forgotten and I will always cherish the memories I have of her. I will miss the long late night chats (late for me, not for her because of the time difference) and the laughs we shared together and I will never forget the end of the conversations “Jane , we’ve been talking for almost 3 hours and she would say, really, ok , I’ll let you go, call you next week, loves ya”.. “I love you to Jane”. RIP my friend! Rowena

Brianne Bell I am so sorry for your loss, for our loss. Janie was truly one of a kind. Her laugh was definitely infectious, and she always knew how to make any moment lighter with her humor and love. She never judged, only welcomed you with open arms and a heart full of kindness. I’ll forever remember her for the joy she brought and the warmth she shared with everyone around her. She will be deeply missed.
