Born in Calvert to the late John and Mary Ely on April 3, 1921, Janet was the youngest of five children and a 1939 graduate of Ralston High School She was predeceased by her husband (George) of 64 years. In keeping with the Ely tradition of longevity, Janet lived to be 97.

She was predeceased by her siblings: Annie Dewald (108), Karl Ely (87), Martha Winner (100) and Scott Ely (100). Janet was the mother to six children: Dale (Noreen) Roan of Mt.
