Obituary of Janice S. Sweet

Janice S. Sweet, 83, of Binghamton died Saturday July 30, 2016 at the Willow Point Nursing Home. Janice is survived by her brother Robert W. Sweet and his wife Catherine, sister-in-law Jane Sweet, and cousin Sandra Scanlon. Her nieces and nephews, Robert W. Sweet Jr (Julie), Kelly Marcus (John), Karen Sweet-O'Neill (Gary), Tracy O'Hara (Kevin), Kim Sweet, Floyd B. Sweet (Karen), and David Sweet. Beloved grand nieces and nephews, Mary O'Neill, Adam Marcus, Nathaniel Marcus and Tara Bercham (Ben). She was pre-deceased by her parents Floyd and Lillian Sweet and her brother Floyd B. Sweet Jr. Janice led an adventurous life growing up in Binghamton, living in New York City working in the Insurance Industry and then to Pennsylvania where she started her career in Certified Home Health Care. She continued in that field as she moved back to the Norwich NY area and finally back home to Binghamton. She was very dedicated to her patients and truly loved helping those that could not do for themselves any longer. Janice also had a soft spot for animals and always had a dog or cat in her household. Janice had a quick wit and a dry sense of humor which we all will miss. Her beautiful scarves and hats she would knit for her family every Christmas were always a special treat she would give us. The family would like to Thank the West Wing at Willow Point Nursing Home for the compassion, patience and kindness with which they took care of her in the final years of her life. Burial will be in the Gibson Cemetery, Gibson, PA, on Wednesday.
