In Celebration of

Janice Lorraine King

June 4, 1954 -  August 2, 2024

It is with deep sorrow that the family of Janice King announce her sudden passing. Janice peacefully passed away at her home in Mississauga on August 2nd, 2024 at the age of 70 years old. She will be lovingly remembered by her daughter, Stefanie, her brother Archie (Eileen), niece Natalie, great niece Emma, nephew Daniel; as well as her numerous extended family and friends. She is predeceased by her parents Hilda (2010) and Ernest King (1984), her husband Michael King (2006).

With the passing of her father, Ernest, Janice took on the role of Administrator of King Nursing Home in 1984. In the 40 years of running the Home, she took tremendous pride of her staff's dedication to their residents. Jan became an industry leader and advocate for the elderly. She was truly passionate about everyone at King Nursing Home whom she felt were her extended family. Jan developed many lifelong friendships from work and treasured the stories residents would share of their lives.

Jan was a very giving person with a big heart. She adored animals and was a soft touch for any stray. Over the years, Jan always had cats or dogs roaming her house delighting her with their antics. She had a laugh which truly lit up a room and radiated joy. You couldn't help but smile in return when hearing her boisterous chuckle and often one would find themselves delighted by her quick wit. She will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

A private service will be held honouring Janice's wishes. We would like to thank everyone during this time of grief whom have reached out with their condolences.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Mississauga Humane Society at www.mississaugahumanesociety.ca/donate

My deepest condolences to Stephanie, Archie and family. Janice had the best laugh and craziest sense of humour. I will forever remember my many sleep overs with her and our many monthly restaurant dinings in the past. Say hi to everyone up in heaven. Rest in Peace Janice. XO šŸ™šŸ»ā¤ļø

I remember aunt Jan as a young girl delighting me with chicken nuggets (my first memory) as we sat in front of the TV watching cartoons while I visited my grandparents.

As we both aged, our relationship became less of Aunt/Niece and more of a genuine friendship. We talked often as Jan drove home from work. Our trips to Disney World will stay with myself and Emma for the rest of our days. Iā€™m beyond grateful Emma had a strong bond with Jan full of love and laughter. Our memories will help through our grief.

I know in my heart, my grandparents will be there to tell Jan she arrived to soon as they welcome her with open arms.

I will miss Jan tremendously.

One Christmas in the past Auntie Hilda , Uncle Ernie and Jan came to our house. I had the bright idea to buy several bottles of wine and a bottle Sake. Jan and I tasted several bottles (and I mean tasted). A few hours later and in a bit of a haze we decided to try the Sake. Not a good idea. The next day (more like late afternoon) I called Jan to see how she was feeling. Not good she said I think we drank way too much. Must have been the Sake I said and she agreed. Needless to say neither of us ever tried Sake again. But had some great Laughs about the wine tasting.
