Sam and your whole family.  I send my deepest sympathy for your loss.  Janice wore many hats and had many skills.  Back in the day when farmers had 2-way radios, I remember listening to Janice talk as she would be combining.  She could combine with the best of the farmers.  She was a valuable part of the Foos Farm.  Take comfort that she is no longer suffering and is watching out for all of you.

Sam, Bill, Jennifer, & family,
We were so sorry to hear of Janice’s passing. I first remember her from back  when Bill, Jennifer and I were in high school. I always thought she was so pretty. She was always so friendly when I would see her. In recent years, if I would see her, she always loved catching me up on the latest with her kids or granddaughters. Sadly, this has been a rough week for both of our families. Hold the memories close. Her light will live on in each of you.
                    Jeff & Laura

I spent a lot of time in the Foos household in my youth and I considered it my home away from home.  Sam and Janice are wonderful people and made anyone feel welcome. I thank you for all the memories of driving us to school and special events, family dinners, great parties at the pond house, car shows, and most recently new years day pork and kraut when their FL getaway was delayed by unnamed persons surgeries. Janice will be missed by all.  My deepest Condolences to the Foos family.
