Our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend, Janice Mary Harris, entered into eternal rest on December 27, 2022, at the age of 85. She was born in Ware, Massachusetts, to the late Louis and Evelyn Paquette on January 1, 1937.
Janice was a loving mother and grandmother who adored her family. She loved to dance and paint, and she especially loved spending time with family and friends.
Janice was a resident of The Village at Incarnate Word for the last seven years. There, she embraced a strong passion for butterflies. In fact, she was nick-named “The “Butterfly Lady” at the Village and would spend many hours caring for her garden, where her goal was always to save the monarch butterfly.
She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her dearly.

She leaves behind her remaining children: Steven Harris, Patrick Harris (Aloma), Lori Harris, Brian Harris (Tammy), Timothy Harris, and Randall Harris (Jennifer); eight grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren, many step-grandchildren, her sisters Elaine Dean and Carol Bruce, her brother Roland Paquette, and numerous other relatives and friends.

My Aunt Janice was clearly a bright light. Although we didn’t get see her often, when we did, she was always warm and kind, and very witty. I feel she could bring a smile to anyone in her presence. So sorry we couldn’t be there with family to give all our love, and condolences.
