Janine Conley Garland, born January 11, 1952, graced this world with her vibrant spirit and unwavering determination. Graduating from Coffee County Central High in 1970 and earning her degree in English from the University of Tennessee in 1974, Janine's love for words and people guided her throughout her remarkable life.

In her professional journey, Janine excelled as one of Tennessee's top real estate agents, leaving a lasting impact on the southeast region. Her dedication and passion for her work were matched only by her enthusiasm for Tupperware, where she pioneered innovative sales techniques from the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s.

Janine's life was a testament to the power of hard work and resilience. Her laughter and wit could light up a room, and she never missed an opportunity to share a story or a joke. Her friends and family fondly remember her as a woman who balanced her career and personal life with grace and humor.

Janine was preceded in death by her mother, Marvel Conley and her father, Jack Conley.

She is survived by her loving husband, Scotty Garland, and her son, Josh Garland, both of whom were the light of her life. Janine is also survived by her sister, Jackie and husband Bobby McMillan and two nieces, Shannon Williams (Teddy) and Soynia Smith. Janine is also survived by two aunts and several cousins.

Janine was a passionate Tennessee fan and Vol for life. Janine's legacy will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. While we mourn her passing, we also celebrate the joy and love she brought into our lives.

Janine will be deeply missed, but her spirit and the memories she created will forever remain a source of comfort and hope for all who were fortunate enough to know her.
