Janne passed away peacefully at Leslie Groves Hospital in the early hours of Sunday morning, December 10th, from a long illness; aged 74. At rest with her late husband Denis and late parents Betty and Alf Gazzard. Much loved mother and mother-in-law of Lisa and John Rickerby, Tracey Scurr, Matt and Hannah Hutcheson, Rebecca and Tony Illingworth, Janelle Ford and Jason Ramsay. Cherished little sister of John Gazzard. Missed by her many grandchildren.

Janne will be remembered as a respected line dancing teacher and performer. Her last days were spent surrounded by family, who would like to thank the staff of Leslie Groves Hospital, Abbeyfield, the Royal District Nursing Service, and St Andrews Home & Hospital for their care and support of Janne over the years.

A private service will be held. Messages to 027 3311646.
