Janice Colleen Fox Jellesed

Janice Colleen Fox Jellesed, passed away at 87 years old on July 2, 2025, in Libby, Montana. 

She was born on January 12, 1938, in Williston, North Dakota to Archie and Berget Fox. She married Frederick George Jellesed in 1956 in Williston, North Dakota. 

Janice worked at J & M Clothing Store in Troy, Montana and Ultra Classic Car Wash in Libby, Montana. She was part of the bowling club and was the scorekeeper. She was known for “being on patrol” sitting at the bowling alley parking lot, people watching. 

Janice rarely missed a local sports game. She loved bowling, reading, playing cards and playing Yahtzee with friends and family. 

Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren (Caleb, Kirsti, Sean, Kaylee, Riley, Adley, Rynlee and Jayden) were the loves of her life. She dedicated her life to taking care of her loved ones. 

Words cannot express how deeply she will be missed. We love you Gram.

Janice is preceded in death by her husband Frederick; parents Archie and Berget Fox; sister Marlaine; brothers Delroy, Larry, Kenny, Daryle and Lynn; and sons Steve and Kelly. 

She is survived by her children Dave Jellesed, Montana and Lana (Doogie) Garrison, Montana; grandchildren Joni (Al) Walker, Minnesota, Michael (Stephanie) Jellesed, Montana, Ryan Jellesed, Washington, Dustin Irwin, Montana, Brian (Stephanie) Jellesed, Montana, Amy (Jeff) Jensen, Nevada, Megan (Ben) Bettis, Montana, Brenna (Cody) Jueden, Idaho, and Delani Garrison, Montana.
