It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Janet Lee Rosenby. She was a beloved mother, sister, aunt, grandmother and great grandmother who left us on November 11, 2025.
Janet had a feisty and eclectic personality. She liked to laugh, she loved watching scary movies and she never backed down from a debate – anything from soap operas to politics.
Janet had a flare for style that could be seen in the pride she had in her home, as well as the effort she put in to creating beautiful jewelry. Janet met so many people along the way in both her career as a therapeutic foster parent and the many art festivals she participated in. These passions and connections filled her life with purpose and joy.
Janet was born on July 7, 1952 in Missouri, but made Canada her home for the past 40 years.
Janet is survived by her daughter Michelle (Pat), her two sons Michael (Kaeri) and Matthew, her grandchildren Canaan (Anthony) and Jeremiah, her great granddaughter Autumn, as well as her siblings Allen (Vickie), Ellan (Robert), Lisa (Mark) and Michael, along with their children and grandchildren.
