It is with heavy hearts that the family of Janis Marlaine
(Hopey) Branscombe announces her passing, which occurred on Wednesday,

Janis graduated from NBCC, then worked in accounting at a
credit union and finished her career at Canada Post as Finance
Administrator. Janis loved children and played an important role in
the lives of many. Her family and church were important to her and she
was an active member of St. Thomas Church in Black River, serving as
parish treasurer and on WA, as well as Sunday school in previous
years. She loved spending time at the camp in St. Martins, both summer
and winter, and doing outdoor activities like snowmobiling with the
love of her life, Wade. She had fond memories of their car trip across
Canada as well as shopping, especially her annual Black Friday trips
to the United States.
