Racine – Kimberly Kay Janicek, 56, received the promise of eternal life on Sunday, October 18, 2020, surrounded by the love of her family.  She was born in Racine on May 31, 1964, daughter of Orville and Sally (Née: Smith) Olson.

Kimberly was united in marriage to Joseph Martin Janicek, Jr., on June 27, 1987 in Racine. Together, they raised 3 beautiful daughters: Alisha, Amanda, and Anna. Kim made a lasting impression on everyone she met. She was a devoted mother, wife, and grandmother. Kim made her success being self-employed, running 3 businesses with her husband, Joe. She was an amazing cook, gracious hostess, avid reader, and dedicated her life to making memories for her family. Her best job was being a grandmother, or as she would say, “Glam-ma”. She did more in her 56 years of life than most do in a lifetime. She is loved deeply by her surviving husband, three daughters, two son-in laws, and grandson. She will be a greatly missed by many.

Kim is preceded in death by her brothers, Robert Olson, Todd Olson; parents, Orville and Sally Olson.

Testimonials

February 20, 2019

Mike and his team did a fabulous job with the memorial service for our Mom. It was perfect and he made the process easy for me to go through during such a difficult time. She had chosen the funeral home before hand, and she made the right choice. The service was beautiful, simple, and sweet. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
