Janet Gordon

Janet passed away peacefully in her sleep at home on November 8, 2022 at the age of 74. She was predeceased by her loving husband Thomas Gordon (1994). Janet is survived by her parents Audrey and Arnold Jochmaring, caring mother to Deanna Gordon and Chris (Marlys) Gordon. Proud grandmother to Erika Tucker, Kristen Halter, Amber Graff, Graysen Gordon, Chase Gordon and Jaxon Gordon. Devoted great-grandmother to Ada and Declan Sarich. Good friend to sister Maria Jochmaring (Shane Walker), aunt to Clifton Walker (Andrea Coakwell) and Shannon Walker (Brenden Dreger).

Janet was a kind and loving person who was loved by so many. She was an amazing mother, grandmother and always showed how much she loved and adored her children and grandchildren; they were her world.

Janet met the love of her life Thomas Gordon at the age of 15. They truly were soulmates and would later marry at the age of 18. It was also at the age of 18 that she started her long and fulfilling career as a teacher.

Janet began her teaching career by opening a preschool and it was clear from the start how passionate she was. She touched the hearts of so many students and co-workers resulting in a beautiful friendship with a group of ladies from the school Princess Alexandra – ‘The Princesses’.

Janet was also always up for an adventure. Whether it be white water rafting with The Princesses, family trips to the lake or traveling around Europe and the world, she would be there with a smile on her face and ready to take in the excitement.

Even though she will be greatly missed by her family, we can all take comfort in knowing that she has been reunited with Tom and together they are at peace.
