Janis was a loving mother to her two children, Rebecca and Tom Latham. She enjoyed playing golf, camping, fishing, and cooking recipes from her family cookbook. She also loved music and learning new songs to play on her guitar. She had a quick wit and a great sense of humor, and she always succeeded in making those around her smile and laugh.
