Couple takes team approach to ‘beat this’

Janice and Larry Stoney have loved each other almost since the day they met.

Larry and Janice Stoney

She was 15. He was almost 18. They both grew up in the Benson area of Omaha and went to Benson High.

They married young and had a son, and Larry watched with pride as Janice rose to the top of the business world at a time when many women didn’t.

They’ve always been a team.

Janice was 42 when she found a lump in her breast. After she learned the results of the biopsy, her first phone call was to Larry.
