JANICE MARIE EVANS DAY, 64, of Sweetwater,
TX, formerly of Breckenridge TX, was born Feb. 13,
1960 in Ranger, TX, left this world on March 28,
2024. She was a beloved daughter of the late
Catherine Grisson (RHS-1960) & Danny Evans of
Indiana. A cherished sister to Brent Evans, wife
Michelle and Ricky Evans (RHS-1979). She attended
Ranger High School in the Class of 1978 for a short
time.
Janice's legacy lives on through her children:
Brandi Gibson, husband Cody Gibson & son, Shannon
Day of Breckenridge, step-daughter Kristy Espinoza
and husband Michael of Breckenridge along with her
10 grandsons Jr, Isaac and Nathan Duran and Cody
and Brody Gibson. Jordan, Aria Marentes, & Aiden,
Carmen and Kingsley Espinoza. They were the light
of her life; she adored them with all her heart.
A vibrant soul who loved to be on the go, Janice
traveled far and wide to visit loved ones & explore
new places. She had an adventurous spirit that led
her to seek out new experiences at every opportunity.
Whether it was playing games or doing crossword
puzzles, Janice found joy in simple pleasures but
nothing compared to spending time with her grand-
children.
Her warm personality drew people near as she never
met a stranger; everyone was welcomed into her circle
with open arms. A young spirit at heart, Janice lived
for rock 'n' roll music that filled the air around
her with energy and enthusiasm.
She was a Certified Nurses Assistant (C.N.A.) and
worked for many years helping others. Selfless beyond
measure, Janice dedicated herself to caring for others
before herself. Her nurturing nature knew no bounds
as she tirelessly ensured that those around her were
always taken care of. There was nothing within reason
that she wouldn't do for those she loved. In addition
to being a devoted mother and grandmother, Janice had
passions of her own-she adored "I Love Lucy" reruns
and had an obsession with dolphins and never turned
down the chance to ride on the back of a motorcycle-
a symbol of freedom that resonated deeply within her
soul. The Fourth of July marked one of Janice's favorite
times of year when fireworks lit up the sky like stars
dancing above-a celebration close to heart where family
gathered together under bursts of color illuminating
their faces with pure delight.
As we bid farewell to our dear friend who touched so
many lives during hers here on earth we remember how
much joy she brought us all through good times shared
over laughter-filled gatherings surrounded by love.
May you rest peacefully now knowing your kindness will
forever live on through those whose hearts you've touched.
