Janet Adkins Pace, born in Kansas City, MO December 20, 1956, peacefully passed on July 12,
2017 at the age of 60 after a valiant battle against cancer.

She is survived by her mother Janet Hunsaker Colt; son Jon Pace and wife Jennifer along with
grandchildren Hunter, Kaylee and Zachary Pace; fiancé Dave Nichols; brother Stephen Covell
(Robin); and sister Karen Adkins Stolfus (Kenne). She was preceded in death by her father
Edward Adkins, husband Steven Pace and son Shawn Pace.

A 1975 Raytown High School graduate, Janet lived in the Kansas City area her entire life. Janet
was known for her engaging smile, love of life and laughter, and the ability to make every
moment count. Janet enjoyed being outdoors, spending much of her time camping and
boating.

In addition to being a devoted mother, Janet was a loyal friend, daughter and sister. Admired
for her determination, reputation for honesty, and a witty sense of humor, her character
endures her passing and leaves a lasting impression on those who loved her. The comedian
amongst her family and friends, Janet created many memories that will continue to be the
laugh of the party.

The services to celebrate Janet’s life will be held Tuesday, July 18, 2017, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00

    Janet and I arrived at Freightquote the same time every workday, and parked next to each other…walked in together. I’ve been missing her for a year now as she fought cancer. The last time I saw and spoke with her was Friday June 30th. Thank you God for that 90 minutes!!

    Sending prayers and hugs to all that loved Janet. One of the things that I admired about Janet was that she was person that listened. You could talk to her and see that she had compassion. Then she would give you a hug.
    Rest in Peace Janet
