Janet Mae Davis

Janet Mae Davis (Corbett), 87, passed away in Henderson, NV on January 9, 2023 after battling esophageal cancer.  Born in Avoca, NY, raised by her teacher mother, Margaret, and pastor father Orlo, she is survived by her husband Dan; twin sister Janice, sisters Joyce and Carolyn, and brother John; her daughters Cheryl, Becky, and Debbie; and sons Matt, Aaron, and Jon.  She is preceded in death by her first husband Wayne.

As a registered clinical dietitian, she treated patients while raising a family and living in Philadelphia, Fort Worth, Spokane, and Las Vegas.  She was a fiercely devoted Christian, active as a dedicated choir member and officer of her church.  Her artistic talent is evident in many stain glass artworks that include a large sanctuary cross at All Villages Presbyterian Church in Florida.

Her memorial service will be February 18, 2023, 11 am, at Green Valley Presbyterian Church, 1798 Wigwam, Henderson, Nevada.  Her favorite color was red, and you are encouraged to wear a red accessory and a smile in her honor.  If you are not able to attend in person you may stream the Memorial Service live at https://www.facebook.com/GreenValleyPres/. 

Donations, in lieu of flowers, may be made in her name to the Mayo Clinic Cancer Education Center, the American Cancer Society, The Gideons International, Las Vegas Rescue Mission, or to the Henderson ‘Friends of the Desert’ homeless services.
