Janie Lynn Todd

Janie Todd left this world peacefully on June 9th, 2026 surrounded by family in Denton, TX. She was born April 25th, 1956 in Seymour, TX to Mary Ellen and J.W. Malone. She was raised on a farm in Seymour as the third of four sisters, where she developed a love for nature and the outdoors.

Janie had three girls of her own and was a dedicated mother and Nan to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She had many passions in life, including reading, horses, and her love for Elvis Presley - which she passed down to her children and grandchildren.

Janie had a huge heart and was always eager to help anyone in need. She was a devoted homemaker, known for her ability to make everyone feel welcome and at home. She treasured every moment spent with those she loved and created a space filled with warmth, laughter, and unconditional love.

She is survived by her loving family - daughters Sheila Montez and husband Junior, Melody Stanford and husband Dayton, and Marti Sanders; sister Jeanie Vernon and husband Max; grandchildren Cameron Garner and wife Taylor, Makenzie Ross Follina and husband Mike, Makayla Corniel and husband Mason, and Rayna Walthall; along with eight great grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.

She is preceded in death by her parents Mary Ellen and J.W. Malone; sisters Sharion Zachary and Cindy Malone; niece Shana Zachary; nephew Toby Phillips; and great grandson Bentley Corniel.

A visitation will be held on June 13, 2026, from 2:00 to 4:00 PM at the Mulkey-Bowles-Montgomery Funeral Home, located at 705 N Locust St, Denton, TX 76201. Family, friends, and all whose lives Janie touched are invited to gather and pay their respects. A celebration of life will be held at a later time.

Janie's memory will continue to live in the hearts of her family and all who knew her. We remember and honor a life beautifully lived, a soul deeply cherished, and a woman whose impact will not be forgotten.
