    • PENLINGTON, Janice Diana (Friesen) 1935-2009 - Passed away peacefully with her family by her side, at St. Mary's Hospital, on Saturday March 14, 2009. Janice was predeceased by her husband, David Lorne Penlington. She was the amazing mother of four children and four step-children; Carla McDonald (Bob Moorehouse), Audrey Batters (Ted), Tammy Patenaude (Gilles), David McDonald (Sherry), Barb Heagy (Tom), Arlene Thomas, Peter Penlington (Sharon) and Ping. Janice's greatest joy in life was to spend time with her grandchildren. All eighteen of them! Her grandchildren are Corey, Daniel, Joel, Shayne, Shannon (Russ), Kristen, Melissa, Joshua, Cody, Maegan, Lara, Brittany, Rebecca, David, Jordan, Ruth, Ben and Sean. Janice was also blessed with a great-granddaughter, Paige. Janice was born in Steinbach, Manitoba to Adina and Jonas Friesen. She was one of seven children. She has remained close to the hearts of all her brothers and sisters; Bert Friesen, Marlene Singbeil, Bruce Friesen, Carol Buhay, Bob Friesen, and Brian Friesen. She will also be sadly missed by her close family friend Joyce Fielding and her dear friend Louise Lockhart and family. She touched the lives of all who knew her. Janice was retired from the position of head Branch Administration for Equitable Life Insurance. She enjoyed life to the fullest, never complaining, never wanting, and only giving. We thank God for her. Friends are invited to share their memories of Janice with her family during a visitation on Saturday, March 21, 2009 from 7-9 p.m. at the Henry Walser Funeral Home , 507 Fredrick Street, Kitchener.
