Janice was born on October, 1, 1948, in Camp Carson, Colorado, to Coy and Opal Wheeler. She attended  the University of Maryland. Janice was married to Colonel Don R.

Janice was a charter member of the Canyon Primitive Baptist Church, where she helped obtain the church building and establish the church. She fiercely loved her family and her church family and was always able to make those around her smile and laugh.

She is survived by her husband Elder Don R. Watson; two daughters, Donna Hagemeier and husband Ken, and Christine Watson, and four grandchildren, Brendan Hagemeier, Jared Hagemeier, Conner Watson, and Natalee Vogel.
