Janice Marie Adams
Janice Marie Adams, 73, of Kingsport, went home to be with the Lord in the early morning hours of Monday, August 2, 2010.
A devoted wife, mother, grandmother and sister, Janice was born on October 1, 1937, and lived her entire life in the Kingsport area. She worked for Sears in the Fort Henry Mall for thirty years before retiring in 1998. She was a faithful member of Bays Mountain Baptist Church for several years and a loving and compassionate woman who will be missed so dearly by everyone that knew her.
Janice now walks in heaven with her oldest son, Bryan Adams, who passed away four years ago. She is also preceded in death by her parents, Coy and Faye Lazenby, several sisters, and a brother.
