Summary: With hearts full of love and sorrow, we share the passing of our beloved Jannette on April 7, 2025. She was the beating heart of our family—a wise, funny, and fiercely strong woman whose presence could fill a room and whose stories could capture generations. Jannette had an uncanny way of bringing the past to life. Whether sharing tales from her youth or dropping unforgettable one-liners and old-school sayings like “nuts and bolts and washers,” she always left you smiling, thinking, or both. She was upbeat, witty, and full of life. She had a deep love for nature and an even deeper love for her family. Intelligent and curious, she loved to read and learn—book smart, yes, but also a proud graduate of the school of hard knocks, with honors. Jannette was the strongest woman we’ve ever known, with a beautiful soul and a spirit that radiated joy. Her love for life was contagious, her laugh unforgettable, and her wisdom lasting. She was deeply loved, and her legacy will continue in the lives she touched. Jannette is survived by her son, Jack “Chance” Rider; daughters, Desiree Rider, Rayleene Rider, Deanna (Timothy) Lilly, Poppy Bergland; brother, John Wood; son-in-law, Leroy Dominguez; daughter-in-law, Shawna Ganwall; and family friend, Linda Simon.
