1953-2022

It is with great sadness that the family of the late Nina Blanche Janes (Young) announce her passing at her home in Springdale on November 7, 2022 at the age of 69 years.

Nina was born on August 8, 1953 to Eileen and David Young in Smith’s Harbour, a sister to 4 girls and 9 boys. Later in life she met the love of her life, Raymond Janes of Kings Point, NL. They married on February 12, 1972 and made a life together in Kings Point and was blessed with 5 beautiful children, Rowena, Freeman, Sandra, Jamie and Craig; who later blessed them with 5 beautiful grandchildren, Kyle, Jordan, Jonathan, Matthew and Joshua; and then one great grandchild, Jaxson . Nina’s family was near and dear to her always. She always made a habit to be in touch daily with not only her children but her brothers and sisters, in-laws and friends. She enjoyed simple small things in life and would never greet you with anything but a smile and love. She has left a lasting impact on so many and will be missed beyond measure by all who knew her.
