She was born Janice Alvilda Warne on July 10, 1942 on the family farm near Bryant, South Dakota, the daughter of Rasmus and Alta (Anderson) Warne. The family moved to the Hayti area and she attended the Opdahl Country School from the first through the seventh grades and then after consolidation, finished in Hayti. The family moved back to the Bryant area where she attended high school and then graduated in 1960. After graduation she moved to Minneapolis, MN where she attended secretarial school for about 6 months, the schooling a gift she received from her aunt and uncle. Janice started working at a bank and remained there for 26 years applying herself, learning new talents and moving from department to department gaining more responsibilities. During that time, she experienced conversion from machines and paper to computers. She left the bank and worked through a temporary agency and offered a full-time position at a bearing company in their accounting department. Janice worked there until a family health issue in the mid 1980’s arose and brought her back to Watertown. After her return to this area, she was employed by Andor Inc. in Watertown since that time, retiring from there, but still working a day or two a week until this past March. She had a work ethic second to none. Over the years Janice has focused primarily on her work. In free times she enjoyed listening to music, as her dad was an old-time fiddler. She also read magazines and watched old-time movies on TV. In her high school days she participated in Glee Club and also was selected for All-State Chorus. In the community, Janice will long be remembered by the Lake Area Technical Institute for sponsoring the Janice Warne Memorial Scholarship, she always thought that given her opportunity to further her education was a gift of her aunt and uncle, she wanted to establish something for a young person to further their education, someone that was also in assistance of funding. Preceding her in death were her parents and a sister Anita. Surviving her are several cousins and her Andor, Inc. family. Obituary and photo by Furness Funeral Home.
