Janet Virginia Rosevear passed away on December 12th at the age of 84 at the Redwoods retirement home, where she received exceptional, loving care. She was born in Berkeley to Virginia Edna Glahn and Varrell Liddell Wilkie, who divorced when she was very young. She and her sister Vicki were raised in Mill Valley by Virginia and her adopted stepfather, John Cameron.
Janet attended Old Mill School and later Tamalpais High, graduating in 1951. She married her high school sweetheart, Leland Rosevear in 1952, and with him, built a home and started a family. She was an active member of Peace Lutheran Church, and loved the companionship and spirituality there for many decades.
She was famous for her creativity and passion in the kitchen, but her expertise at jams, cookies, and pies was outstanding and universally appreciated.
She was preceded in death by her daughter, Virginia (Ginnie) Nichols and her husband, Leland, and is survived by her sister, Vicki, son, Don, daughter-in-law, Heidi and two adored grandsons.
The family will be having a private memorial service.
