January 27, 1957 - February 25, 2021

Janis Meyer-McGillis passed away February 25, 2021 at the age of 64, at Riverview Hospital in Red Bank, NJ. She was born and raised in the Morgan section of Sayreville, NJ. She graduated from Middlesex County Vo Tech in 1975. Janis always had a strong love for animals. At age 18, she learned how to groom horses. She took this skill with her when she moved to Brick in 1987 as her family started to grow. Janis started and operated a pet grooming business in 1998, in Brick. Her success allowed her to expand into the mobile grooming industry in 2006. She purchased her own mobile grooming van to better serve the community with her skills. Janis was a successful entrepreneur and a very strong woman. She battled kidney cancer for three long years, and remained resilient throughout. She always was in a positive spirit, no matter the circumstances. She will be remembered as a beautiful woman, inside and out, who had a positive impact on everyone in her life. Surviving are her son Dylan James Meyer, her daughter and loving husband, Jacqueline and Robert Regan, and her sister and devoted husband, Margaret H. and James J Flynn. Due to the current pandemic, a celebration of Janis’s life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family requests a donation to the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in the name of Janis Meyer-McGillis. Silverton Memorial Funeral Home 2482 Church Road, Toms River, NJ is in charge of the arrangement. www.silvertonmemorial.com.
