Read More	Janet Ann Schwenke was born June 29, 1933, the daughter of Harvey A. and Lillie M. (Dau) Jones in rural McClelland, Iowa. She passed away on Friday, January 1, 2021, at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha at the age of 87. Janet was raised in Council Bluffs through grade school until the family moved to Walnut where she graduated from high school in 1944. Janet attended Westmar College for one year where she was enrolled in elementary teaching. On February 5, 1956, she was united in marriage to Leroy Arthur Schwenke in the Calvery Baptist Church in Walnut, Iowa. To this union, six children were born: Leanne, Susan, Jeff, Janalee, Bruce, and Trisha. Janet worked at First National Bank in Omaha, Nebraska. She became a wife and homemaker until a brief stint in 1962 when she returned to First National Bank. The family farmed on the farm northeast of Massena until 1966 when they moved into town. Again a brief stint took Janet and the kids to be with Leroy one summer vacation that turned into a whole summer when he worked on the gas pipeline. The family lived in Wisconsin before coming home. A small camper was purchased to live in to finish out the long summer. Later the camper for many years became a great base for Janet on the many camping weekends with the Schwenke clan. Even with all the work in getting the family to the campgrounds and shuffling kids home to walk their paper routes, Janet enjoyed this time of family camaraderie. Before her own children were old enough to be on their own, Janet started babysitting. This brought a continuous stream of local children through her home for many years. Wherever Janet went, children would find their way to her lap or nuzzle up close to read a book, play a game, or just be cuddled whenever comfort was needed. Janet was a member of the Massena Baptist Church, neighborhood Sunshine Club, was a Boy Scout Assistant Den Leader, and AWANA Leader. She was preceded in death by her husband; parents; brother, Bob Jones and wife Inez; sisters-in-law, Loretta Denney and Ruth Jones; brothers-in-law, Irvin Schwenke, Charles Schwenke, and Ivan Schwenke; parents-in-law Howard and Mable Bicking. She is survived by her children, Leanne Schwenke of LaVista, Nebraska, Susan Jones of Bellevue, Nebraska, Jeff Schwenke and wife Karen of Anita, Janalee Caviness and husband Randy of Greenfield, Bruce Schwenke and wife Naomi of Bondurant, Iowa, and Trisha Schwenke of Massena; brothers, Aaron Jones of Council Bluffs, Iowa, Bill Jones of Omaha, Nebraska; sisters-in-law, Shirley Schwenke of Greenfield, Iowa, Alda Schwenke of Omaha, Nebraska, Cheri Schwenke of Atlantic, Iowa, and Lavonne Morgan of Atlantic, Iowa; grandchildren, Allen Jones and wife Cat of Bellevue, Nebraska, Heather Jones of Bellevue, Nebraska, Stephanie Schwenke of Anita, Iowa, Michaela Rozeboom and husband Brett of Merriam, Kansas, Mackenzie Schwenke of Anita, Iowa, Merritt Caviness of Greenfield, Iowa, and Beth Schwenke of Bondurant, Iowa; other relatives and friends.
