In loving memory of Janet M. Ricketts

We are saddened to announce her passing on January 8, 2024.

Jan was born November 15, 1955, in Butte, Montana, to Chester L. Bauer and Lessie M. Bauer.

Jan had many professions throughout her life but enjoyed working at the family dollar in anaconda the most. Her favorite things to do were spend time with family, friends, camp, and dance.

Janet is survived and missed by her loving husband of 40 years, Robert G Ricketts; siblings, Jeffery Bauer, Joseph Bauer, and their families; children, Stefanie McMillan, Rob Ricketts, Dan Ricketts, Ron Ricketts; and eight grandchildren.

Upon her request there will be no funeral services.

Janet will be remembered for all the love she shared with family and friends; she truly loved each one of them!
