Janice Julia St. Onge, 74, died Oct. 2 in Amesbury, Massachusetts. Born June 24, 1952, in Lowell, Massachusetts, she raised her children in Newburyport and lived for many years in Gettysburg before returning to Massachusetts. She was living in Amesbury at the time of her death.
St. Onge is survived by her daughter, AmyBeth Macdonald Hodges, and son, Roderick John Macdonald Jr.; their spouses, Brian Hodges and Sara Quimby; her sisters, Kathryn Clark and Elizabeth Carey; and many cousins, nieces, and nephews. Her parents, Eileen Lane St. Onge McBrairty and John G. St. Onge Sr., and her brother, John G. St. Onge Jr., died before her.
Music was a lasting source of joy for St. Onge, who loved singing and harmonizing. Her Christian faith was central to her life. She also cherished summers at Hampton Beach, New Hampshire, where she spent time with family as a child and returned for family visits later in life.
