Palm Bay, Florida - Janice was born and raised in Miami Florida. The youngest of four children by her parents Roger E. and Kitty Kopplow. She graduated from South Miami High School. Janice was the life of every party and kept us in stitches with her costumes for every occasion, jokes (risqué), songs and banter. Janice loved to smile and laugh and make everyone happy. She was an animal lover from riding her horse to walking her dog.

She always had a ready ear to listen and help . She passed very peacefully surrounded by her family and friends. She is survived by her sons Alan and Isaac, sisters Kathy and Diane, brother Ronnie, many nieces, nephews, cousins and her beloved dog Taz. Janice will be missed by all who knew her.
