On Thursday, September 22, 2022, Janie Marie Sirlona passed away at the Monument Health Hospice in Rapid City, after a long battle with cancer.

Janie was born on December 31, 1961, to Jack and Donna (Stillian) Dale in Council Bluffs, Iowa. She was the youngest of three siblings. Janie graduated from Abraham Lincoln High School in Council Bluffs.
