Janet L.

Sep 15, 1931 — Sep 10, 2019
Dallastown
Janet L. (Strayer) Kenyon passed away on Wednesday, September 10, 2019, just five days shy of her 88 th birthday. Janie was born on September 15, 1931 to the late Raymond and Elizabeth (Bailey) Strayer. She was the wife of the late Elton R. Kenyon.
She received her nursing degree from York Hospital in 1952, and later received her Master of Nursing. She worked in hospitals from Pennsylvania to California, but her favorite jobs by far were as the school nurse for Dallastown Area High School and as a part-time nurse in the practice of Red Lion physician, Dr. Jeffrey Frey.
Janie was an avid and accomplished golfer, hitting the links all over the county and was a member of the [now defunct] Red Lion Country Club, winning the 1972 Women's Championship at that club.
Janie is survived by a brother, Ray G. Strayer of Dallastown and a sister, Flo L. Wallace, also of Dallastown; as well as nieces: Lorena (Wallace) DiZio and Kelly A. Strayer; and nephews: Bret A. Wallace and David R. Strayer.
