Janice Marie Crompton (née Barnett)

December 7, 1939 – February 15, 2026

Janice Marie Crompton, 86, passed away on February 15, 2026. She was born in Ponca City, Oklahoma, and was a longtime resident of Rainbow, California, and The Dalles, Oregon.

Janice served 30 years in civil service with the United States Marine Corps and Navy, retiring as a Management Analyst for the Navy. She was a trailblazer for women in her field and a fierce example to her daughters and grandchildren.

She loved horses, Louis L’Amour books, sunbathing, and Elvis Presley. She was never happier than reading a book outside on a warm day.

Janice is survived by her devoted husband of 52 years, John Crompton; her daughters, Erin Spitzer, Katherine Curbello, and Sylvia John Crompton; her brother, James Barnett; her grandchildren, Amber Chambers, Audra Crawford, David Pemberton, and Andrea Pemberton; and her great-grandchildren, Jason Crawford, Jana Marie Crawford, and Mikayla Chambers.

She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered for her quick wit and sage advice.

Spencer, Libby and Powell Funeral Home in care of arrangements.
