Janet A. Wagner
November 6, 1948 — May 7, 2017
JANET A. WAGNER, 68 of Lake McConaughy, NE passed away Sunday, May 7, 2017 at her home at Lake McConaughy.
Jan was born November 6, 1948 in Denver, Colorado to John Charles and Ann Bertha (Whyte) Wagner. She graduated from Cherry Creek High School in Greenwood Village, Colorado.
Following her education, Jan worked various jobs in and around the Denver area before becoming the first known female automotive service writer in Denver, which was something she was quite proud of.
In the late 1990's, Jan moved to Nebraska and eventually started an Aqua Turf underground sprinkler business, operating primarily from her Lake McConaughy home.
Jan was ambitious and resourceful, which were traits that she picked up from her father. Jan was not easily intimidated by a challenge and loved to learn new skills, which was the impetus behind her underground sprinkler venture. In younger years, Jan enjoyed golfing and playing softball. She was also a lifelong lover of dogs. Jan spent nearly 20 years in the Lewellen/Lake MacConaughy area, and cherished the friendships that she made over that time.
Jan was preceded in death by her parents.
Survivors include her 6 brothers, Gary Wagner of Arlington, VA, Don (Bev) Wagner of Franktown, CO, Kurt (Penny) Wagner of Buffalo, WY, Mark (Cassy) Wagner of Torrington, WY, Rick Wagner of Parker, CO, Greg Wagner of Castle Rock, CO; sister, Kim Canatsey of Colorado Springs, CO; along with many nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.
A memorial has been established in her memory. Condolences may be shared at prairiehillsfuneralhome.com.
A gathering and time of fellowship in Jan's memory will be held on Friday, May 12, 2017 at 6:00 p.m. at the Marina Landing located at 5051 Albees, Lewellen, Nebraska.
Prairie Hills Funeral Home of Ogallala is assisting the Wagner family.
