Obituary

Janis Louise (Lusardi) CarpentierOctober 3, 1951—October 8, 2026

Janis Louise Carpentier, 75, of Coalinga, California passed away peacefully on October 8, 2026. Born in San Mateo, California on October 3, 1951, she was the beloved daughter of the late George Angelo Lusardi and Bettie Louise (Gerard) Lusardi.

On April 26, 1973, Janis married the love of her life, Richard Helaire Carpentier, in Reno, Nevada. Together, they built a life centered around family and faith. Janis was a devoted wife, mother, sister and grandmother whose greatest joy came from the time she spent with those she loved. Always being sure to celebrate everyone’s special occasion or birthday! She had a profound passion for baking sweet treats for her family, bringing magic to every season by decorating for the holidays and above all, absolutely spoiling her grandchildren.

Janis was reunited in heaven with her beloved husband, Richard and her parents, George and Bettie.

Her legacy of love lives on through her two daughters, Laura Quattrin and Michele Loscutova; her four siblings, Steve Lusardi, Rob Lusardi, Kathy Lusardi and Bonnie Nelson; and her cherished family of five grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.

“Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the LORD’s house forever.” — Psalm 23:6

“Jan always made me feel happy. Her disposition was true and genuine,
Caring and loving. Such a Great Friend.”

“Grandma Jan was my first best friend. We always loved watching old 50s movies and talk about the beautiful old style fashion and houses in the movies. We loved playing card games and baking cookies together. I even would have sleepovers with her because her bed was layered with cushions and was so comfy (and she let me stay up and watch movies all night). Getting to go to Grandma Jan’s was always one of my absolute favorite things to do. I attribute my old soul to her:) My favorite things will always be the things she showed me. I love and miss you Grandma Jan ❤️”

“Oh mama, how I miss you ~ life will never be the same, but I will find joy just knowing where you are now and that someday hopefully I’ll get to be with you. You truly are an angel, and you are exactly where you belong ~beside our loving Savior.
My walks every day are so quiet, a little lonesome I do have pearl, but it’s not like talking with you. I truly miss that I could talk about anything even boring and you just listened. No one listens and gives the good advice like mom, especially when it comes to the grandkids.
Thank you for all the memories, Grandma wisdom, childhood fun, magical holidays, I only hope that I’m able to do the same or even half as good for my future grandchildren. Thank you for being the perfect example of kindness and Love 💗 that you showed to everyone 🙏🏼🕊️👼🏼”
