Janice Wright
Liberty, SC
With heavy hearts but warm memories, we celebrate the life of Janice Laura Waters Wright, born on November 24, 1948, in Seneca, South Carolina, she was the daughter of the late Archie and Frances Hughes Waters. Janice, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister and friend, peacefully departed this world into the arms of her Lord and Savior on August 2, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of love and warmth.
Janice was retired as the dietary manager at The Willows of Easley, dedicating her career to nourishing others with the same love and care she put into her own family meals. Known for her incredible cooking skills, she had a flair for making abundant feasts that would feed an army. Every gathering was a special occasion, marked by delightful meals and joyous laughter shared with those she cherished. More importantly, Janice loved the Lord and was a longtime member of Norris First Baptist Church.
Family was at the core of Janice’s life. She is survived by her devoted husband of 26 years, William David Wright, her loving children Beverly Morrison (Marty), Scott Goss (Lisa) and Mandy Davis (Greg), and her brother Jeff Waters. She is also survived by six grandchildren that she adored, Heather Morrison Haney (Jeff Bilyeu), Kala Goss, Nikki Atkinson (Sam), Ashley Phelps (A.J.), Justin Davis (Brittany), Josh Davis (Chelsey); also, eight great-grandchildren, Ellie, Emersyn, Aria, Marshall, MacKenzie, River, Stetson and Hovey. Janice also leaves behind two loved ones that she cherished as her own, Cassie and Lily Grace Rogers. Together, they created a tapestry of memories filled with joy, adventure, and love.
Janice had a special affinity for nature, finding peace in the company of birds and her beloved dog, “Abby.” She treasured the moments spent traveling to the beach and the mountains, embracing the beauty of the world around her.
