Janice was the type of girl who would visit a synagogue in Cincinnati to buy ‘sedar bread’, then color and draw sketches on Easter eggs and make a meatloaf in the shape of a lamb and invite her CCD teacher/friends over for a Passover Meal. We’d sing songs from Fiddler on the Roof. She also put together clever programs for Thanksgiving gatherings. I also remember at least 2 Christmas group visits at her apartment on Lavasser where by the light of her Christmas tree, we’d sing Christmas carols as she’d read her favorite passages from A Woman Wrapped in Silence .
Janice was vivacious, intelligent, artistic and creative. There was not a topic that Janice didn’t have knowledge of and opinions on. She was a deep thinker and had a sensitive heart. She loved to sing and she loved her family.
