Janice Nietta

Carter

Janice Nietta Roach Carter, a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, who left us on January 1, 2026, at the age of 79. Born January 6, 1946, in Lepanto, AR, to the late David and Maggie Roach.

Janice lived an adventurous life. She moved to Houston, Texas from Arkansas with her family when she was in high school. She married the love of her life Jimmie Carter in 1966 and moved to Pasadena, Texas. She had several occupations while in Texas including Veteran's Affairs and a chemical operator. Her favorite job was raising her four children. She and her family moved to Mississippi in 1986, where shortly after she opened a convenient store. She spent many years making memories and friends at the store. But the best times of her life were watching her grandchildren play basketball at Hebron Christian School.

She was preceded in death by her parents, David Roach and Mary Magdalene Taylor Roach; her husband Jimmie Lynn Carter; her sister Norma Joyce Roach.

She leaves behind one brother David Wayne (Carolyn) Roach; four children, Stephanie (Rodney) Jones, Rhonda (Jason) Basham, Kay (Benny) Borst, and Jimmy Duke (Lian) Carter; nine grandchildren Stephen (Ariel) Carter, Mary Margarete (Garrett) Jones, Dakota Ray, William Miller, Eliana Carter, Adrian Borst, Elisha Carter, Anna Borst, and Jimmie Carter; four great-grandchildren Annabelle Jones, Jeremy Jones, Daphanie Carter, and Erica Carter; one niece Jeane ' (Lee) Krustchinsky, one nephew Jeremy (Javonna) Roach.

Memorial services will be held at a later date.

In Lieu of flowers, the family request that memorial donations be made to Hebron
Christian School, Pheba MS.
