Janet Minnie Scofield, 82, of Tucson, AZ, formerly of Denville, passed away peacefully on Friday, January 15, 2016.
Born in Wyoming, PA, Janet was a lifelong Denville Resident. She was married to the love of her life and former Denville Police Lieutenant, Robert H. Scofield who predeceased her in 1991. After his retirement in 1980, they relocated to Las Vegas. Janet was a phenomenal wife and mother. She had 2 full time jobs, on top of being a Mom. She will always be remembered for her outgoing personality, quick wit, never ending work ethic and her love for all sports. After Bob's passing, Janet relocated, along with her longtime companion Hank Johnston, which started a new chapter of new adventures for both which included their time in Florida, Tucson and finally settling in Bullhead City, Az. Janet will always be remembered for her love of travel, especially with her dear friend the late Laurene Sannipoli. The Scofield family would like to thank Barbara Schubert for her friendship and unconditional help and support during these last few weeks. Mrs. Schubert, I could not have done it without you.
Her legacy will live on in the hearts of many, including her beloved children, Robert Scofield and his wife Mavis, and the late Jeffrey Scofield; her cherished grandchildren, Jacqueline and Kyle and his wife Sara; and her adored great-grandchild, Gunnar.
