Janice Harvey

1940 — January 1, 2019

Unionville, Tennessee

Mrs. Janice Wheeler Harvey passed from this life to her eternal home in heaven on Friday, February 8, 2019.

Seventy eight years old, she was a daughter of the late John Newton and Carrie Rebecca (Evans) Wheeler.

Along with her parents, she was also preceded in death by a son, Roger Marion Boyce, a brother, Bud Wheeler, a nephew Richard Wheeler, and her husband, Carl L. Harvey, Jr.

Mrs. Harvey was affectionately known by many as “Granny Pud”. She had a compassion for helping others and baking pies for friends and family during their difficult seasons of life. She was a supporter of her alma mater, Community High School and followed the Vikings and Viqueens basketball teams until her dementia stopped her ability to do so. Mrs. Harvey was a member of Calvary Baptist Church in Shelbyville.

Mrs. Harvey is survived by a daughter, Becky (Bobby) Hughes, Unionville, TN; son, Randall (Dawn) Boyce, Shelbyville, TN; five grandchildren, Josh Sanders, Shelbyville, TN, Lara (Justin) Smotherman and Keri Beth (Tory) Moore, both of Unionville, TN, Colt Boyce, Shelbyville, TN, Blake (Brianne) Boyce, Unionville, TN; six great grandchildren, Gracie Smotherman, Grady Smotherman, Ashtyn Moore, Ethan Moore, Mali Moore, Brenley Gibson; one uncle, Jimmy Wortham, Chapel Hill, TN; several nieces, nephews and cousins; most importantly, her loyal dash hound, Jenny.

Funeral services will be conducted at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, February 10, 2019 from the chapel of Lawrence Funeral Home with Bro. Scotty Sorrells and Bro. Jimmy Gray officiating.
