Janice (Riddlesperger) Roe
Janice Marie Roe, age 72, passed away March 11th, 2017, after a short illness.
Janice was born on February 12th, 1945, in Lodi, California to Doyle and Bertha Buttress. Janice attended Bruella Elementary and graduated from Lodi Union High School in 1962. She worked at Lakewood Drugs for 20+ years before retiring.
She is survived by her only son, Dennis Riddlesperger; daughter-in-law, Renee Riddlesperger; granddaughters, Brittany Riddlesperger , Kristie Riddlesperger; and her greatgranddaughter, Lily Anne.
She is also survived by her sister, Dolores (Nick) Spanos of Lodi; brother, David (Betty) Buttress of Oklahoma; sister-in-law, Lucy Buttress of Oklahoma; and many nieces and nephews who lovingly called her Aunt Jani.
Her family and close friends were her life. She was such a wonderful Mother, Mother- in- Law, Grandma, Greatgrandma, Sister, Aunt, and Friend. Janice’s happiest times were spent watching her granddaughters, Brittany and Kristie, compete at horse shows and every sport they were involved in. She was definitely their biggest cheerleader. She loved her great granddaughter, Lily, so much, who lovingly called her G.G.
She was Elvis’ biggest fan and loved collecting his memorabilia which was mostly given as gifts by family and friends. She loved playing card games with family and sharing jokes with everyone.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Doyle and Bertha Buttress; three sisters, Billie Holmes of Nice, Betty Edwards of Galt, Pauline Gryder of Lodi; and her brother, Bobby Buttress of Oklahoma.
Janice will always be remembered for her beautiful smile and always laughing.
