PESSIONE, Janet (Jan) passed peacefully surrounded by her loving family on October 26, 2025, aged 88. Beloved wife of the late Angelo, proud mother and grandmother, and faithful friend to many.

Jan approached life compassionately with love, always with a smile. Wise and wonderful, she inspired many with her resilience, diligence and kindness.

Jan will be missed every single day, even the birds will be sad.

Heartfelt thanks to the outstanding staff of Dunstan Hospital.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to either Central Otago Living Options Trust or the Central Otago Friendship Network.
