Janice Elaine Burroughs, died peacefully on August 25th with her husband by her side after a courageous battle with multiple hemorrhagic strokes sustained over the past two and a half years. Janice was born on May 17, 1950 in Nashville, Tennessee to Russell and Annie Smith. She graduated from Goodlettsville High School and attended Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU), where she met her husband, Michael K. Burroughs. Later in life Janice returned to school and earned two master’s degrees and a PhD in theology. She was a beloved teacher in the Parkway School District from which she retired in 2010 after 20 years. She was passionate about her family and education. Janice is survived by her husband, Michael, her sons, Michael Jr. and John, her grandchildren, Nicholas, Madeleine and Bryce, and her brother, Steven Smith. When she wasn’t spending time with her family, especially her beloved grandchildren, and many friends, Janice loved reminiscing about her time as an Army wife living in Nuremburg, Germany or her studies at Oxford University. She loved traveling to Europe with her husband, Michael, and spending time on the Florida coast and in Door County, Wisconsin. Her favorite pastime was simply being with her husband with whom she was married for 51 years.
