Janet Marie Davies

Janet Marie Davies, 65, of Fort Wayne, Indiana passed away peacefully and went to be with the angels in heaven surrounded by family and friends at 9:07 pm on Monday, July 22, 2024. Born June 1, 1959, in Goshen, Indiana, she was the daughter of the late Melvin Weaver and Ethel (Denton) Weaver who survives. 

She graduated from Wawasee Community School with the Class of 1977. During her higher education she attended nursing school and went on to be a clinical dietician. Jan was also an established realtor along with her husband where they enjoyed many opportunities in the business world. 

On April 10, 1999, she was united in married to Kenneth Davies at St. Jude Catholic Church in Fort Wayne. Jan and Ken continued in their faith and are parishioners of St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church. 

Jan loved lake life, where she and Ken have cottages at Lake James and Wawasee. She especially loved spending time with family, friends and watching her three beautiful grandchildren grow. She enjoyed crocheting, reading, crossword puzzles and watching The Price is Right, where she and Ken were able to attend a show. She would spend hours gardening with her parents and helping her mother in the kitchen. Her love for pampering herself with regular visits to the salon reflected her impeccable sense of style and flair for elegance.
