Ruth Argean Janey went to meet Jesus on March 19, 2023, at the age of 92. She was a lovely woman with an infectious laugh whose artistic success with oils and watercolor adorns the walls of many homes in Eastern Iowa, as well those of her family and friends. She showed great resilience throughout her life bouncing back from many disappointments and challenges. At every stage of her life, she found joy in reinventing herself. She did so with a variety of activities from being a member of the Aquarelles synchronized swimmers who performed in Cedar Rapids and regionally, to being a waitress at the diner in the lower level of Killian’s and later at The Pine Inn, where she met her late husband, Robert Janey, with whom she had three more sons. She learned as an adult if you can change the way you think about your circumstances, your feelings will follow.

Family, extended family and friends are invited at 1 p.m. Aug. 6, to join us at Red Cedar Lodge in Wanatee Park, Marion, to celebrate her life and the passion with which she lived it with a couple of her favorite things: music and food. Please
