Janet Irene Bolton (Day), 79, of Snohomish Washington, passed away on 10.03.2023 after a short illness.

Janet was born in October of 1943 to William and Irene Bolton of Kirkland Washington.  Janet graduated from Lake Washington High School in 1961.

Janet didn’t always have the easiest road, but through her determination, hard work, and fighting spirit she was able to persevere and provide for herself and her children. When Janet retired in 2007, she spent her time fishing at the cabin, family gatherings at the farm, camping, going to the beach, watching her beloved SEAHAWKS, gardening, road trips, a few trips to Hawaii, and she especially loved watching fireworks. Janet made the best spaghetti and could never pass up a good apple fritter or spice drops!

Janet is predeceased in death by her father and mother. Sisters and brothers Joyce, Doris, Laurel, Peggy, Robert, and William. She is survived by her four children Drew, Dee Anna, Denise, and Darcy, her son and daughter in laws Mark and Jennifer, her three grandchildren Devan, Zoe, and Mylee, her sister Cheryl, and numerous nieces/nephews.

In lieu of flowers, Janet strongly requests (if you can) to donate blood on her behalf.
