As a result of a blind date, she married the love of her life, Tom Carter, of Maywood, on July 24, 1971. Tom and Janice were the example of true love and the best of married life as they worked hard on the farm together and were always side by side.
Janice loved God, family, and hard work. She believed in doing things right, keeping your word, and positive thinking. She was constantly doing thoughtful things for her family, friends, and neighbors. She loved to be outside on the family farm, mowing, gardening, brushing the horses, paddle boating on the pond, watching Cardinals games, listening to country music, decorating, and taking rides in the side by side. She also served as the Treasurer of the Durham Cemetery Association and was a member of South Union Baptist Church.
Despite her five-year battle with ovarian cancer, Janice always had an upbeat attitude. Her motto was “God is good. Keep walking, keep praying.” Janice was a featured model in the “And Still I Rise” fashion show fundraiser for the QMG Foundation Cancer Center earlier this year.
Janice is survived by her husband, Tom, of Maywood; her only daughter, Jana Hattey and Jana’s husband, Joseph, of Maywood; her nieces Yvonne Stone and Beverly Ritter Bowen, both of Steffenville; and Peggy (Cindy) Ritter of Quincy. She is also survived by several great nephews and nieces, as well as her beloved “second family” at the Quincy Medical Group Cancer Center. She was preceded in death by her parents and her brother, Kenneth.
