Funeral Services were held inside the House of God Church, in Ocala, Saturday for Janice Joseph-Woodard and her six month old son, Josiah. They were killed on July 10, 2007, when a plane crashed into two homes in Sanford. Friends and family described Janice Joseph-Woodard as a phenomenal woman, who would do anything to help people in need, especially young girls.

“She would want us all to get involved and continue on this legacy of helping young girls, who otherwise wouldn’t have strong positive role models in their lives,” said Courtney Wright, a friend of Janice Joseph-Woodard.

Janice Joseph-Woodard is survived by her Husband, Joe Woodard, and their four year old daughter.

A total of five people were killed in that plane crash, including Woodard’s neighbor, four year old Gabriela Dechat. Gabriela’s parents and ten year old brother, Daniel Happy, were all burned. Pete and Millie Dechat are being treated in the Orlando area, while Daniel is recovering at a burn center in Cincinnati.
