Philip James Janes' Obituary
It is with great sadness that the family of the late Leading Seaman, Philip James Janes announces his passing on Tuesday, March 27th, 2018 at Oceanview Manor in Eastern Passage, Nova Scotia at the age of 56 years. Born in Port aux Basques, Newfoundland, Philip was the son of Gerald and Vera Janes. He was also predeceased by his brother-in-law Craig Gale and his mother in-law Phyllis Musseau.
Leaving to mourn with fond and loving memories his wife Josephine Janes; children Terry (Tyana) of Cold Lake, AB and Matthew (Katie) of Dartmouth, NS. Philip will forever remain in the hearts of his grandchildren Bodhi Janes and Ivy Janes. He is also survived by his sisters Wanda Jeans of Cole Harbour, NS, Kimberly Gale of Corner Brook, NL, Paula Janes of Port aux Basques, NL, Cynthia Ryan of Elmsdale, NS, Geraldine (Russell) Harvey of Botwood, NL, Penny Janes of Port aux Basques, NL; brother Christopher Janes of Cole Harbour; father-in-law Ronald (Irene) Musseau of Port aux Basques, NL; sister-in-laws Darlene (Tony) Legge of Port aux Basques, NL and Denise Musseau (Tanner and Riley Musseau-Seaward) of St. John's, NL plus a large circle of nieces, nephews, extended family and many friends especially Eddie Laing of Eastern Passage, NS and Brian Osmond of Codroy Valley, NL.
Philip had been fortunate to be in the loving care of the staff and volunteers of the Oceanview Manor in Eastern Passage. During his lifetime, Philip touched the lives of many people through his community involvement, 15 years of Scouting in Nova Scotia and serving his country in the Royal Canadian Navy for 20 years before retiring in 2001. Philip loved the outdoors and dearly enjoyed fishing, hunting and wood working. He was truly a gift to everyone.
In keeping with Philip's wishes, cremation has taken place.

Interment of ashes to follow at a later date in Newfoundland. Donations in his memory can be made to The Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Society.
