IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Janet Louise
Medlar Baisch
February 3, 2024
Janet Louise Medlar Baisch, 77, of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, died with her family by her side at Lancaster General Hospital on Saturday night, February 3, 2024, and is finally at peace. Born on July 14, 1946, she was the daughter of the late Morgan Medlar and late Florence (Betty) and Nevin Haller. She was the loving wife of Ernie Baisch, whom she spent 47 years together by his side.
Janet graduated from Lancaster Catholic High School in 1964. Her love of hair dressing took her to Empire Beauty School which eventually led her to open her own beauty shop on King Street in Lancaster. She later worked at Donnelly Printing for 38 years in the Quality Control Department proofing the ads and catalogues, which if you know Janet, this was the most fitting job for the perfectionist she was.
Janet was an amazing and talented cook and loved making meals for her family and big gatherings. If you were lucky to ever eat her food, you were lucky. Her chicken corn soup, lasagna, sweet potatoes, and chicken dishes were family favorites.
Janet was an avid shopper and decorator. If you have ever gone on a shopping excursion with her you know it was an adventure which consisted of her knowing everyone working at the stores. They were so excited to see her and always welcomed her with hugs and a big smile. She was a pro at getting a great deal but not skimping on quality, picking out the most thoughtful gifts, and incorporating her finds into decorating her home. She had a magic touch to make it cozy.
Janet's pure joy was her children and grandchildren. Her most favorite thing to do was go watch her grandkids in their sporting events and traveled far and wide to attend countless baseball, football, volleyball, track and field and basketball games. She was a consistent presence at these events and made many friends along the way.
Her most recent years without a license took her to walking distance establishments D&S Brasserie, Pasqueles and Bridgeport Diner where she became a regular patron and was so loved by the employees. Janet also loved concerts, musicals, travel, casinos, and her beloved grand-doggies.
In addition to her devoted husband, Ernie Baisch, she is survived by her children Jennifer Kudlacik (son-in-law Gregg), David Martin (daughter-in-law Karie) and Stephanie Pepe (son-in-law Dan), her grandchildren, Logan, Haley, Allison, Grayson, Zachary, Morgan, Max, and great grandson Liam. She also had a special and close bond with her siblings and their spouses Candy, Nevin (Rhonda), Heidi, and Monica (Randy), in addition to Ernie's family. She was a kind and loving aunt to her nieces and nephews and loved her godchildren.
A funeral service will be held Sunday February 11, 2024, at Charles F. Snyder Funeral Home, 3110 Lititz Pike, Lititz PA at 11am. Family invites guests to a viewing prior to service from 9:30am to 11am. In lieu of flowers donations in Janets honor may be made to The Alzheimer's Association at www.act.alz.org or an animal charity of your choice.
