Janice Trotter

September 2, 1949 — May 29, 2020

A Celebration of Life service for Janice Michael Trotter, age 70 of Clarksville, will be Tuesday, June 2, 2020 at 1:00 PM at Sykes Funeral Home led by Brother David Mackens. Burial will follow at Salem Cemetery. The family will receive friends on Monday, June 1, 2020 from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM and again on Tuesday from 11:00 AM until the time of service at the funeral home. Janice went to be with her Lord and Savior on May 29, 2020, surrounded by her loving family.  She was preceded in death by her parents, Clinton and Ocie Miller, brothers RB Miller and Billy Joe Miller and sisters, Becky Ellis and Loretta Jarman.

A loving wife and homemaker, Janice was a remarkable cook and enjoyed preparing meals for her family.  She was a selfless, God fearing woman who always put others first. Her greatest love was her family and her children were proud to call her "Mama".  Her grandchildren lovingly referred to her as Gran and can recount many wonderful memories spent together at Gran's.  Janice was a member of Lone Oak Baptist Church.


She is survived by her devoted husband of 54 years, David Trotter, and her daughters Donna (Tim) Rye, Lisa(Harry)Neal, Stacie (Greg) Williams,  and Stephanie (Jeremy) Lobdell  as well as her niece Tammy Ellis who was more like a daughter, grandchildren Casey (Megan) Williams, Evan Williams, Daniel Lobdell, Sadie Rye, Michael Lobdell, Nick Rye, Emily Rye, Katie Rose Neal, Jocie Lobdell and Joseph Neal (Katrina).  She also leaves behind two brothers and one sister as well as many nieces and nephews.

Janice's grandsons will serve as pallbearers and her son-in-laws as honorary pallbearers.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to Ruth Farmer and Jessica Claggett, who have become like family caring for our precious mother as if she were theirs. We can never express how much you all mean to us.

In lieu of flowers the family would request donations be made to the Alzheimer's Association at Alz.org or the Greater Things Fund at Lone Oak Baptist Church P.O. Box 200, Cunningham, TN 37052.
