Janet Lee (Bange) White, 87, of Hanover, passed away peacefully with family by her side on Wednesday, Feb. 24, 2021, at the Lebanon Valley Home, Annville. She was born Thursday, Jan. 11, 1934, to the late Edward Lee and Grace Irene (Wonder) Bange. She is predeceased by both of her husbands, Rev. Howard Deetz and LG White.
Janet was a cook at Penn View Bible Institute and lived a life of service. Some may know her as Janet Deetz as she was a preacher’s wife before being widowed and later married to LG. Janet was always well dressed and every strand of beautiful white hair perfectly in place. She had a great sense of humor and laughed often. There was no one that Janet loved more than Jesus. Most importantly she was a loving mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, and aunt.
She is survived by her daughter, Joy Laird, three grandchildren, Stacy (Sean) Bankey, Vanessa Gingrich, and Roy C. Gingrich, six great-grandchildren, three great-great-grandchildren, four step-children, several step-grandchildren, brother, Mearl Bange, and sisters, Sylvia Malehorn, and Kathy Thomas. She is predeceased by three sisters and one brother.
