Janice B. Swiatek of Southington, CT passed away peacefully on November 6, 2024 at the age of 77. Born on November 30, 1946, Janice was a private person who valued her independence and the quiet of her own company.

Janice grew up in Meriden, CT, and was a graduate of Francis T. Maloney High School in 1964. As an adolescent, she belonged to the Falcon Fife and Drum Corps.

While she kept to herself, her life was a unique journey, shaped by a perspective and individuality that were deeply her own. Her life offers a quiet reminder of the dignity in walking one's own path and living a life that feels true. As she moves on to her next journey, may Janice find the peace and solitude she so valued. She leaves behind a legacy of quiet strength and independence that will be remembered.
