They celebrated 54 years of marriage.
Terry survives, along with their children Becci (Mike) Mann, David (Lori) Steinke, Jim (Shiela) Steinke, all of Elkhart, Daniel (Kelly) Steinke of South Bend, and Tom (Michelle) Steinke of Middlebury. Surviving as well are 16 grandchildren and 16 great grandchildren. She was preceded in death by a grandson and 8 siblings.

Janice was employed for over 14 years as a group leader at Markley Enterprises in Elkhart. She and her husband Terry recently moved back to Elkhart from Venice, Florida where they were life members of the DAV. Janice was also a member of the American Legion Ladies Auxiliary, the Marine Corps League Ladies Auxiliary, and the Baugo Fire Ladies Auxiliary. In her spare time, she enjoyed shopping with her daughters in law, playing BINGO, and making her famous potato salad for the family.
More than anything, Janice loved spending time with her grandchildren and great grandchildren where she took great joy in hosting a “cousins sleepover” at her home for them.
