 Janna
Michelle Mong, 16, was the last of five children
and although we, as her parents, were not aware
at the time of her birth, she was the completion
of yet another family the Lord God had made.
Born February 23, 1996, in a serene, rural,
Pennsylvania midwife's home to Daryl and Sandy
Mong, Janna was instantly one of the five joys
of our lives.
Growing up in the east, she treasured nothing
more than her three older brothers and her older
sister. Their interests in life became her
satisfactions, remaining that way to the day of
her passing. Additionally she held most dear her
three nephews and always a cat or kitten or two.
Moving to Bonners Ferry in January, 2006, she
continued to be home schooled until becoming a
student at the Kootenai Valley Mennonite School
in September, 2008. Her circle of friends
enlarged within the community and church
settings until the moment came earlier this year
when she met the Lord Jesus Christ, the Friend
closer than a brother.
Thrilled to be invited to become an employee of
the Bread Basket Bakery at the close of the past
school year, she looked forward to serving
together with her fellow coworkers. Over the
last several months she developed a genuine
interest in reading, in addition to a widened
circle of friends in the church community. She
left this world on July 26, 2012, for higher
ground while swimming with her brother James.
Surviving are many relatives in the east,
including her maternal grandmother, her eldest
brother and family, her sister and family, and
several uncles, aunts, and cousins. Locally she
is survived by her parents, Daryl and Sandy Mong
and her two brothers, Josiah and James Mong.
To say Janna will be missed by all who knew her
on this earth is the best testimony her life may
offer. We have lost our last but our heavenly
Father has gained His first -- a jewel.
Family and friends are invited to sign Janna's
book at

Arrangements are entrusted to the care of
Bonners Ferry Funeral Home. |
