Janet Marie Maddy
POLSON — On March 4, 2007, Janet “Nana” went to Heaven to live in the loving arms of Jesus. Janet ended her courageous battle with cancer surrounded by her family. She was loved by many and will be missed more than words can say. She has touched the hearts of more people than she will ever know.
Janet “Nana” was born with twin sister Joan in 1934 in Seattle to Nello and Margaret Michelotti. She grew up in a loving family with two brothers, Fred Michelotti and Nello Michelotti, and sisters: Joan Maxwell, Rita Michelotti, Thelma Garcia, and Linda Menashe.
Janet followed high school by attending Central Washington University for art school. Janet went on to marry Robert Earl Maddy on Sept. 2, 1961. Together, Robert and Janet had five children. They raised their family in West Seattle and spent their summers on Flathead Lake in Polson.
Janet “Nana” had a wonderful life and lived life to its fullest. She was unbelievably gifted at cooking. There wasn’t a meal that she couldn’t prepare. Janet was also a very talented artist. Janet spent many years as a nurse and raising her family.
She opened her home and cabin to many kids. She loved to take vanloads of kids camping, hiking, and to the ocean. Janet devoted her life to spreading God’s Word. She taught 29 consecutive years teaching Sunday school and Vacation Bible School. She also spent 12 years as an evangelist, going house to house spreading the gospel. Janet also had a special place in her heart for the children in poverty in Mexico. She spent time working in the orphanages and helping with the poorest of poor.
For the past 15 years Janet devoted her time to her 15 grandkids: Heather Howell (15), Nicholas Howell (12), Sarah Howell (10), Ashlee Howell (5), Jordan Maddy (7), Kolbi Maddy (5), Taylor Maddy (4), Julia Maddy (10), Rachel Maddy (9), Alexis Maddy (7), Lucca Maddy (6), Ellie Maddy (5), Bryanna Maddy (5), Mia Maddy (3), and Julianne Maddy (18 months).
There was never a day that went by that she didn’t have at least one of her grandchildren with her — they were the joy of her life. She had clay prints in their hands when they were still in their high chairs.
Even though the last three years she struggled with cancer, she always fought it with hope and never complained. She looked forward to chemotherapy days to spend time with her special chemo friends. She always talked to them about heaven and their mansions that waited them.
To Janet, well done my good and faithful servant.
Janet was preceded in death by her father, Nello Michelotti; her mother Margaret Michelotti; brother, Frederick Michelotti, and son Paul Maddy.
Surviving are her husband, Robert Maddy; sons, Mario (Jennifer) Maddy, Michael (Marlo) Maddy, Marcus (Tracey) Maddy and daughter Heidi (Jeff) Howell; her sisters, a brother, cousins, numerous nieces and nephews and her beloved grandchildren along with many friends.
