Janet E. Koch

Janet Elizabeth Koch

Passed away peacefully on January 21, 2026, in her 93rd year, at Winston Park Retirement Home in Kitchener.

Janet was a loving mother to her sons, James and Gordon; a cherished mother-in-law to Linda and Julia; and a devoted grandmother to Venessa (David), Charlene, Adam, and Abby. She also held a special place in her heart for her niece, Olivia (David). An artistic soul, she was a pianist, pilot, proud gramma, and lifelong lover of animals—especially Winston, her Newfoundland dog, and Boots, her Oldenburg horse.

We thought she would live forever. Janet leaves behind many wonderful memories and a lasting legacy of love.

A celebration of life will be held in the spring with a brunch at the Guelph Air Park. Details to follow. Arrangements entrusted to the WALL-CUSTANCE FUNERAL HOME & CHAPEL 519-822-0051 / www.wallcustance.com.

A tree will be planted in memory of Janet E. Koch in the Wall-Custance Memorial Forest.
