Underwood Janney
Aug 17, 1926 — Jan 21, 2022
Eunice Janney passed away peacefully January 21, 2022, at her daughter's home in Conway, South Carolina. She was 95 years old.
She is survived by her daughter, Euna Lee Conelly (Carl) of Conway, grandson, Bryon Scott Adkins of Conway, granddaughters Avery Prouse (Mick) of South Charleston, West Virginia, Kiera Means (Rusty) of Charleston, West Virginia, great-grandson, Cameron Bradley of South Charleston, West Virginia, and great-granddaughter, Kaylie Pace of St. Albans, West Virginia, niece, Patrice Underwood of Oak Hill, West Virginia, nephew, Mark (Angie) Underwood, Proctorville, Ohio, and Charles "Kevin" (Nan) Underwood of Columbus, Georgia. Her pride and joy Boxer, Hunter, a precious "furever" guardian, will miss her dearly.
Mrs. Janney was preceded in death by her husband, William A. "Bill" Janney, her daughter, Donna Dee Janney, brother, Charles C. Underwood, sister-in-law, Carol Underwood and grandson, Timothy Patrick Adkins.
Born August 17, 1926, in Walker County, Alabama, she was the daughter of the late Charlie and Ellette Boshell Underwood and stepdaughter of the late Ethel Radford Underwood.
Mrs. Janney lived her entire life devoted to Christ. She confidently proclaimed her Christianity and shared the teachings of Jesus Christ with everyone she encountered. She was a longtime member of Calvary Baptist, Oak Hill, West Virginia, where she enthusiastically and proudly served on various committees such as the decorating committee and the social committee. After moving to Conway, South Carolina, she moved her membership to Langston Baptist Church, Conway, South Carolina. Her talent for arts, crafts, and coloring beautiful pictures was phenomenal. Many friends, neighbors and family members will always remember "Miss Eunice" for the crafts and colored pictures she created and eagerly distributed – always with a smile on her face.
Mrs. Janney's love for her daughters, grandchildren and friends was unconditional. She loved everyone and always found "the good" in them.
The family is sincerely appreciative to Agape Care Group of South Carolina for her continuous care throughout the past seven years, while staying in her loving daughter, Euna Lee's home. They especially want to thank her sweet nurses, Teresa Carotti, RN and Helen Cook, RN, Krissy Martin, CNA, Edith Glasgow, social worker, and Bill Harold, chaplain
