Obituary of Janice Wilhelm

Peacefully and surrounded by love of her family, on Tuesday, January 12, 2021, Janice Wilhelm of Belmore passed away at the age of 50.

Beloved daughter of John Wilhelm of Belmore and the late Diane (Fitch) Wilhelm who predeceased her in 2009. Cherished sister of Susan & Paul Thompson of Wroxeter and Amy & Chris Eadie of Belmore. Dearly loved aunt of Lauren, Leigha and Tianna Thompson and Austin and Amber Eadie. Cherished niece of Jean & Gary Kritz, Helen Shore and the late Ron Shore and Betty Morse. Predeceased by her grandparents Wilfred & Agnes Wilhelm and Jack & Stella Fitch. 

Janice was a dedicated member of her community. You could always find her at the Belmore Arena, the curling club or the ball diamond. She never missed a baseball game or a Belmore Maple Syrup Festival. No matter where she went, she always seemed to know someone- a “social butterfly” some might say. She was proud of her nieces and nephew and cherished them as if they were her own. She had a passion for baking. When she wasn’t able to do it herself anymore, she made sure to still contribute by giving some constructive criticism. Her laugh was contagious and you couldn’t help but smile when she was around. There will only ever be one “Chucky”. Despite all life’s challenges that Chuck faced, she always persevered. She remained positive and fought a courageous battle until her last moments. She truly was one of a kind and will be deeply missed.

Private arrangements have been entrusted to McBurney Funeral Home, Wingham. Final resting place, Wroxeter Cemetery.  

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations to the Listowel Memorial Hospital Foundation or a charity of choice would be appreciated as expressions of sympathy.
