Janice Kay Kurth
Janice Kay (Scott) Kurth was born October 3, 1945, in Oberlin, Kansas, to Goldie Ola and Clara Elizabeth (Allacher) Scott. Janice grew up in Oberlin and attended Decatur Community High School.
On July 15, 1963, Janice married Robert Wurm in Oblerlin, KS, and to this union one son was born, John. Janice moved to Imperial, Nebraska, in 1981, and later married Arvin Kurth on April 19, 1999. The couple made their home in Imperial until Arvin’s passing in 2005.
Janice was employed as a waitress at Jack’s Place, Enders Golf Course, Eagles Club, and numerous other businesses. Janice was a member of Zion Lutheran Church in Imperial, Imperial Eagles Club and VFW of Imperial.
Janice enjoyed playing cards at the VFW, Eagles Club and Enders Golf Course. She loved collecting John Wayne memorabilia and anything relating to wolves.
