Janice Helene (Katz) Rosett

Janice Rosett passed away on December 31, 2021, after a long illness. She was born on January 24, 1955, in El Paso, Texas to Jacob & Celentha Katz. After earning her bachelor's degree in Spanish and French with honors from UTEP, Janice combined her fascination with language and love of helping others into a long and successful career as a teacher. In El Paso Janice met Randy Rosett, and the two were married in 1978. In 1982 they moved to Albuquerque where Janice continued to inspire others, teaching Spanish to countless students at Eldorado High School. Even after her retirement, she loved the frequent chance encounters with former students who remembered her fondly. Janice's personal achievement as a teacher is eclipsed only by her impact as a loving and dedicated wife and mother -- Janice and Randy together raised three charming and successful children. Janice rightfully took great pride in watching her children grow to have families of their own and was an active and doting grandmother.

Janice was very fond of seeing the world, but equally enjoyed quiet days at home or shopping with close friends. She was a flawless hostess and an outstanding chef and baker and took great joy in sharing her talents to the delight of her family and friends.

Janice is survived by her husband, Randy Rosett and their three children, Jeff (Kaili), Matt (Carrie), and Nancy; and four grandchildren Ben, Sam, Ezra and Maren; her brother and his wife Wayne & Liz Katz, their children Josh, Laura & Nick, and grandchildren Theo & Hanna.

All who knew Janice admired her cheerfulness, her intelligence, and her boundless energy, but what was most important to many was her tremendous capacity for caring and kindness to everyone she met. She was beautiful both inside and out and will always be remembered with great love.
