Janice Evelyn (Fuller) Currier passed away in the early morning
of Oct. 7, 2015, at the age of 94. Janice was born in St. Johnsbury,
Vermont, on March 18, 1921, and was the youngest of five children
born to Clyde Ellsworth Fuller and Bernice (Holder) Fuller. She had
many cherished memories growing up with her beloved mother,
father, sisters and brother in their home on Spring Street.
After graduating from St. Johnsbury Academy with the class of 1939, Janice attended
Lasell College in Boston. She left Boston to work at Goodyear in
Windsor, Vermont, and then returned to St. Johnsbury to work
for many years at Northern Cadillac on Eastern Avenue. It was
there that she met her future husband of 54 years, David.
Janice often told the story of dismissing David's advances by
telling him she would not go out with him until he owned a
Cadillac. The rest was their history as it was just the beginning
of their life together, the city girl and the country boy. Together
they had four children, Megan, John, Joel and Mary and raised
them with much love, laughter and joy on their century old farm in Danville.
During her life, Janice became a master quilter, meeting with
her quilting girls every Wednesday for years. She volunteered
for the American Society of Dowsers, Hospice, and was a
member of The Order of The Eastern Star and the Danville Congregational Church.
Janice was predeceased by her brother Henry Fuller; sisters
Eleanor (Fuller) Peters; Margaret (Fuller) Nicoll; Elizabeth
(Fuller) Remick; and husband David Currier.
She is survived by her daughter Megan Haygood and husband
John of Danville; son John Currier and wife Barbara of Norwich,
Vermont; son Joel Currier and Linda Hunkins of Barnet;
daughter Mary Currier and Martha Kingsley of Danville; her
former daughter-in-law Liliana Cubero, with whom she
remained close; four grandchildren: Zachary Currier of
Arlington, VA; Katherine Currier of New York, NY; Marissa
Currier-Cubero of Danville; and Joaquin Currier-Cubero of
Danville; and many nieces and nephews and their families.
A service will be held in Danville on Monday, Oct. 12, 2015 at 11:00 a.m.
at the Danville Congregational Church, 87 Hill Street.
Memorial contributions could be directed to: Danville Volunteer
Fire Department, P.O. Box 229, Danville VT 05828.
