Janice Buchanan Culley, age 68, died unexpectedly on August 20, 2022, at her home in Ephraim, Utah. Janice was born on January 20, 1954, in Richfield, Utah to Richard and Rigmor “Rae” Jorgensen Buchanan. She graduated in 1972 from Skyline High School in Salt Lake City. She was married to Gary Culley for 28 years and they had four children together and an adopted son. Janice worked as a counselor at a youth treatment program and eventually opened her own business, Pathways Learning Center. She was very passionate about whole integration. She always loved to play board games with her family, especially Yahtzee. She also loved to garden, enjoyed nature, and eating fresh natural healthy foods. Her neighbors always complimented her flowers in the front yard. She was devout in her beliefs, committed her whole life to serving others, and lived a Christ-like life.
