In Loving Memory

Jenifer L. (Stroup) Lansing

(May 24, 1964 – May 4, 2026) 

    Jenifer Lansing, 61, of Silver Springs, Florida passed away Monday, May 4th, 2026, at Hospice of Marion County in Ocala, Florida. She was born in Xenia, Ohio on May 24th, 1964, the daughter of James and Wilma (Boerner) Stroup. She volunteered with the Spring Valley Township Fire Department for 18 years and was a member of the Spring Valley Global Methodist Church.  

    She courageously battled cancer for four years with unwavering strength and grace and departed this world surrounded by love, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, compassion, and cherished memories that will live on in the hearts of all who knew her. Throughout her journey, she demonstrated extraordinary bravery. Even in the face of illness, she continued to share laughter, wisdom, and encouragement, never allowing her circumstances to diminish her love for others. Her presence brought joy, and her absence leaves an irreplaceable void. 

    Jeni enjoyed traveling, hiking, camping, and being out in nature. The Great Smokey Mountains were her favorite travel destinations. While living in Silver Springs, Florida, she called our weekend trips adventures. 

    Jeni was preceded in death by her father, James Stroup, her mother Wilma Stroup and her brother Samuel Stroup. She is survived by her husband, L Travis Lansing, whom she married on February 19th, 1994, and her sister Shery (Billy) Baker. 

    Jeni’s banking and mortgage career started at Bellbrook Community Bank, spanned forty years, and ended at Chase Bank in Xenia. 

    The family will hold a private memorial service in the Smokey Mountains at their convenience. 

    In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Hospice of Marion County, Ocala, Florida or to the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition. 

Rest in peace, you are deeply loved and will never be forgotten.
