Janice Lupo Wallace

Janice Lupo Wallace, 73, of Marietta, Georgia, went to be with her Lord and Saviour on October 6, 2021 surrounded by her loving family.

Janice was born March 3, 1948 in Homerville, Georgia to Grady G. Lupo and Macy Smith Lupo. She married Ronald E. Wallace, also from Homerville, June 18, 1965.

She attended Clinch County High School and remained in Homerville until 1969, when she and Ronald moved to Nashville, Tennessee where he graduated from Free Will Baptist Bible College.

Janice spent the next 47 years in ministry as a pastor’s wife. She supported the ministry as a piano player, worship leader, Sunday School teacher and “preacher”, when needed.

She loved spending time with her children, grandchildren and great granddaughter. They were her pride and joy. She was also Mama Janice and adopted Grammy to many children, teens and young adults for over 40 years. Her happy place was the front porch of their Blue Ridge Mountain cabin. She loved to bake, quilt, scroll Facebook and contact family and friends daily. Her teacakes were legendary!

Janice is survived by her loving husband of 56 years, Ronald E. Wallace, her two daughters, Tammy Wallace Owen (Lamar) of Canton, Georgia and Toni Wallace Fehl (Ron) of Marietta, Georgia. She was Grammy to five grandchildren, Lisa Owen of Canton, Georgia, Kelli Owen Hewitt (Bobby) of Canton, Georgia, Macy Fehl of Marietta, Georgia, Jackson Fehl of Marietta, Georgia and Emma Kate Fehl of Marietta, Georgia and one great granddaughter, Bella Rae Hewitt. She is also survived by her sister, Eloise Lupo Cox of Manor, Georgia and numerous beloved family members.

She is preceded in death by her parents Grady G. Lupo and Macy Smith Lupo, her brothers Thomas G. Lupo, James D. Lupo, Talmadge E. Lupo, Joseph E. Lupo and Daniel E. Lupo and her sisters Ella Jean Lupo and Ruth Lupo Brigmond.
