Janie Lou Rucker, 71, of Chesapeake, passed away Thursday, September 25, 2014, at her home. Janie was born October 26, 1942, the daughter of the late Vernon Douglas Thompson and Georgia Hazel Thompson. She was also preceded in death by two brothers Larry and Gary Thompson. She leaves behind, her children, Johnny "J.D."

She is also survived by one special brother and sister-in-law, Jerry and Lisa Thompson, many cherished work friends, and a special fur friend, Toby. Janie was a graduate of Chesapeake High School in 1960 and a treasured employee of Sky Lake. She was also a previous manager of the canteen at the VA Hospital, worked at Sugarwood Golf Course, Gibbs office machines and owned her own beauty salon Janies Barber Styling. She loved spending time with her family, spoiling her grandchildren, shopping, vacationing with her family, cooking, sewing and home improvement projects.

Visitation will be held 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. Monday, September 29, 2014 at the funeral home. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

I loved Janie. She was an awesome lady and a friend. She had a heart full of love for her family and for people. She would help anyone when she could. I'm gonna miss our times we shared laughing and just visiting. I know she loved God and she's not sick any more. If there's anything she would want it would be for all her loves, (kids and grand babies )to stay close to The Lord and lean on Him in these painful days of loss.. She may be out of our today but she is in our tomorrow's . God bless and keep you comforted till then.
