In loving memory of Janet Anne Northcott who passed away with her family by her side on January 19, 2024. Janet was born in Dryden on June 29, 1945 to Reidar and Mary Olsen. Janet spent most of her life in Dryden.
Janet is survived by her son, Jeff Marsh, her brother Ron (Sharon) Olsen, nieces Robyn (Mike) Paquette, Jennifer Olsen and her great nephew Reidar Paquette. She also leaves special lifelong friends who she considered family: Blake, Debbie and Ashley Latimer, Barb Hampe, Marcey Taggart, Dody Davis and Vicki Johnson. Janet was predeceased by her husband, Les Northcott.
Janet worked as an RNA at the Dryden Hospital and at the Dryden Medical Clinic as a receptionist.
Janet had a strong love and appreciation for nature, enjoying many trips with Les to camp. Along with her love of nature, she loved any and all animals, especially her Maggie.
The family would like to thank Dr. Cook, Dr. Bester and the Nursing staff at the Dryden Regional Health Centre for their care and compassion. The family would also like to express our heartfelt appreciation and thank you to Heather for not only being her caregiver but a wonderful friend while Janet was both at home and in the hospital.

January 23, 2024 at 10:44 pmSo sad to hear of the passing of gramma Jan, she was a wonderful woman. I always loved going for lunch at her house and she’d make me an ice cream cone with sprinkles. Always happy and laughing. I’ll miss you. Condolences to the rest of the family.

January 24, 2024 at 1:02 pmSo very sorry for your loss. My condolences to Jeff, Reidar, Robyn, Mike, and family. I do not think there was one time that I visited with Janet that she didn’t mention Jeff, her love for him and the appreciation of his sacrifice, care and kindness.

January 25, 2024 at 5:38 pmVery sorry to hear of Janet’s passing, she was a great neighbor to my grandparents and then to myself when I bought their home. She will be particularly missed by my cat Patricia who would sneak over as much as she could… I’m guessing it was for the cans of salmon that were provided and all the attention she recieved. She will be missed in the neighborhood.
