Our sincere condolences to Janice's family. Her beautiful smile and loving personality will be dearly missed. May you feel her ever presence in your memories.

Some of my very best memories of 33 years of teaching special education are field trips to A & J Stables, and the love, care, and attention Janice and Arnold showed for our students.  Regardless of disability or physical limitations, those 2 would find a way to connect with every student!  They would make a way so each could do as much as possible and what would make them happy, whether it was just riding in the wagon, holding the reins while we rode in the wagon or actually getting on a horse.  They had total control of those horses, who were as gentle and caring as they were.  
Janice was like a sweet grandma to all, and I remember her bringing plates of treats out of the house as they joined us for a picnic lunch in their yard.  When it came time to leave, there were hugs all around, and promises to return.  
My most recent memories are of her joining us at the First Congregational Church Of Morristown for worship.  By this time her memory was fading, but when I would share my memories of the stable trips with her, the joy on her face was unmistakable.  Whenever she was able to be there, I always tried to share one of these moments with her, because of the joy my memories brought her.  
Janice was such a gift to others, and will be missed on this earth, however, to know that she is in heaven, whole and reunited with those she loved, is a blessing to those of us left here.


Janice will be deeply missed by her family at the Keep Home. When we see horses, we will always think of her. 

My sympathies to Dianna and the Milsap family. When I think of Dianna's mom, horses were involved. She was always smiling and kind to us. Virtual hugs to you all

My memories of Janice stem all the way back to when I was little in Calaboga. We had  pony from the time I was 3, and horses  after that, but it was Janice that taught me to properly ride and care for my horses when I was growing up. She really seemed to love teaching and sharing her knowledge. A few years after I graduated from college, she gave my last horse a place to live out his final years as a guide horse. Nothing but fond memories of your mother/grandmother.  

Dear Family  of Janice,  our sincere condolences to all of you for your loss. Janice loved her family for sure. We know that as she talked about her family many times to us.  Personally, I will remember the many times Janice and I participated in our bible education work together. We had such good times in our ministry work!  She really enjoyed helping others learn about the Bible’s hope for the future. We would go every year together with her  And other friends from our congregation to our conventions and assemblies for many special days together learning more about the Good News Jesus taught.  She really enjoyed that. I remember the times we would each go to dinner at each other’s homes and have such a nice time together or just sit and talk.  We miss her Now but it’s only temporary, as we look forward to the time when her life will be restored again in Paradise and all will be new! 
Colleen and Mike Murphy
