Obituary for Janice Duncan Simmons

Janice Duncan Simmons, 81, a resident of Zachary, LA, died on Saturday, February 27, 2021. She was retired, after working for over thirty years as a nurse. There will be a graveside service at Ponemah Cemetery in Bogalusa, LA on Thursday, March 4, 2021, at noon. She is survived by one son, Leo James Simmons Jr. and wife Melanie Simmons of Tampa, FL; two sisters, Eva Edwards and Edna Ferguson; three grandchildren: Trez Simmons, Colby Simmons, and Maitlyn Simmons; and three great-grandchildren: London Simmons, Stella Simmons, and Vivian Simmons. She was preceded in death by her husband Leo James Simmons.

Janice was a lover of life. Her pride for her family was only matched by her passion for caring for those she loved.

She loved to jitterbug, crocheting a blanket of your favorite colors, and making the best fudge and divinity every Christmas. As a nurse for over thirty years, she gained the knowledge to care for her many friends and family.
