Janice Marie Hau

It is with deep sorrow that we share the passing of Janice Hau. Janice passed away of natural causes and joined her husband Brian up in Heaven Monday, March 16th, 2026.

Anyone who knew Janice, knows how much joy she brought to this world. She was kind, loving, and always welcoming. She made everyone feel like family, and her door was always open. Janice was known for many things. She was a special education aide, who truly cared and put her heart into it. She was a track mom who was at every race she could be, always full of support and encouragement. She was the cupcake lady, who would spend hours baking to help those celebrating milestones in life. But the titles that meant the most to her; she was a wife, a mom, a grandma, and a great friend. She spent any time she could with her kids and grandkids. Anyone who spoke to her, knew how much she loved them and how proud she was. Always there to celebrate the accomplishments and a shoulder to lean on through trying times. Janice held a connection of her own direct family along with all family gained through marriage, knowing the family trees like the back of her hand. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

We hold peace knowing after almost 37 years of marriage she didn't have to go without her best friend for very long. Janice believed beautiful sunsets and sunrises were from her passed loved ones and we believe she will join them in painting the skies for us all.
