Janet Rose McGuire

May 2, 2017

McGUIRE, Janet

Born in Toronto, Ontario on September 29, 1958, Janet suddenly passed away in her home on Tuesday, May 2, 2017 at the age of 58 years.

Janet is missed and lovingly remembered by her mother, Mary; brothers, Dave and Tim; her son, Brendan; and her long-time friend, Diane. She will also be missed by many friends and family from her time in Qualicum Beach, BC, Airdrie, Alberta, and Fort MacMurray. She is predeceased by her father, Robert.

Janet touched many lives through her love of art, owning Janet's Stained Glass Treasures in Qualicum Beach, BC. From her love of painting, sewing, gardening, cooking, and fishing, Janet succeeded beautifully in all she endeavored. her altruistic nature was apparent from her many hours spent making warm clothing and blankets for the homeless. Janet will be dearly missed by her family and all those who were fortunate to call her a Friend.

We ask that if you would like to do something special, that you please donate in Janet’s memory to your local homeless shelter or food bank.

 

One cannot sum up a person's life in one small paragraph, Rest Peacefully Janet

Janet: loved you since we were "kids". So sad we didn't hook up while you were in Airdrie. Like the lines in the country song,"do you know who I am?" And he replies, "only every other memory." I will miss you. See you other side. Love Stew xo

Aunty Janet, Mom number 2, I miss you dearly with every minute that passes. I could not have asked for a better Aunt to grow with and learn from. You are more loved than you could ever imagine or even comprehend and place into words. Love you forever and always, see you on the other side. Xoxo

We were so very sorry to hear of our niece Janet's passing. We remember her as a sweet little girl and as a beautiful young mother when she invited us for a big feast at her home while we were visiting British Columbia. God bless you Janet, rest in peace.

You were the most loving daughter and friend. Growing apart made my heart ache , please wait, with dad, so we can be together again, with no pain just the love we used to have. It's difficult to find the words that say just how I feel. My thoughts are all of you right now and my love is an echo of the words we left unsaid. Rest in peace my love.
- Mary McGuire

I first knew Janet when we were kids... we lived a few doors from one another on Delrex Blvd. We spent hours exploring in the ravine behind our homes. We also found each other at the same party in Toronto, just before she moved out west. I'm happy we had the chance to stay in touch through facebook. She will be missed. My deepest condolences to the family.

I knew Janet when we both worked for Paladin Security in Northern Alberta. She was a fine lady - compassionate and caring for all. She was one of the finest individuals I have ever worked with. I am so sorry and sad to hear of her passing. She was a good friend. I wish all her friends and family the best.

Janet was a friend of my family for many years in the late 80s- 90s. I babysat Brendan when he was little. Janet made several stained glass treasures for my Mom, Marion, which I have inherited and they are now my valuable memories of decades gone by. A talented, sensitive, funny soul she was. RIP Janet. Kiss my parents for me if you see them...💙
