It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts we announce the untimely passing of Janice Burke, at Riverview Health Center on March 23, 2021, at the age of 60. Jan passed into eternal salvation in peace and comfort with a smile on her face, knowing she was loved by many.

Jan was predeceased by her loving Mother and Father, Patricia and Brian Burke, who she loved and missed deeply. Jan will be fondly remembered by many friends and all that knew her through Executive Nursing.

Jan was a strong, selfless, caring woman that had a passion to help others. She founded Executive Nursing, later becoming Director, where she devoted herself to helping those in need-even in her final months. Her empathy and passion reached beyond her clients and was felt firsthand by staff and anyone who crossed her path. You were always met with a contagious smile, a hug, a genuine interest in how you were doing, and good conversation; to know her was to love her. To those closest to her, Jan was like a second mother; an ever-lending ear, fabulous meals, hours of conversation, sound advice, a confidant, and an ability to laugh and forget life during visits.

Jan, you touched the lives of many and loved deeply. You will be sorely missed but we rest easy knowing you’re reunited with your parents and Chimo in Heaven.

A private celebration of life will be held at a later time.
Memorial donations may be made to the Winnipeg Humane Society or any animal shelter of choice.
