I will never forget Janice as I grew up with her daughter Sandra & shared so many laughs with her & the family. Yes, I recall all the conversations we had around the table with her cigarettes & coffee LOL. She just had this way of making you laugh. I will always cherish those moments, but most of all, I will always be grateful to her for giving me the most wonderful gift....her daughter Sandra & the close friendship we share to this day! THANK YOU Janice & may you rest in PEACE & I'll see you around friend! Love always.........Mike & Debbie Balboni

So many fond memories of being at the Blades house. As everyone knows I was a wild child and needed a second Mom, Janice Blades when you spoke, I listened. As Jeff said to me a couple of days ago, our moms were two peas in a pod. Coffee and cigarettes at either of our houses is where you could find them most afternoons. Rest in peace, Mom/Janice. 💞

The story both Ali and Megan told me about the time Nana B picked them up from school. The town had just installed the new handicap sidewalks that stick out into the road. "Watch out for that sidewalk, Nana." Nana: "I know" I was then told the car bounced up over and down, with both girls showing how they bounced around in car when Nana drove over said sidewalk. I never laughed so hard! God Bless you, Nana B.
