I am looking for the Date of Death of my older sister Janice who passed away in Gympie Queensland Australia around 2017-2018. :-(

Welcome to the boards, Wines65.

The only way you can find out the exact date is by getting a copy of the death cert.

Info here about applying for a Queensland death cert :

https://www.qld.gov.au/law/births-deaths-marriages-and-divorces/birth-death-and-marriage-certificates/death-certificates/applying-for-a-death-certificate


EDIT:

But -
looking at the application form I see you need to know the date of death in order to apply for the cert.


Maybe try this (just for the date):

https://www.slq.qld.gov.au/plan-my-visit/services/ask-us

I don't know if they'd be able to tell you anything so specific about such a recent record.
They might be able to access local newspaper announcements or obituaries - though nothing is showing up on a Google search.

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

Thank you ArgyllGran,
Thank you for your welcome. And your replies. I have been working on my Family Tree for a few years now (bit here and a bit there). My sister has passed away (I thought) part way through this period. I have tried most of your suggestions, without any luck. I visited her a few times at her Gympie Queensland address after she and her family returned after a few years in Tasmania. I went overseas for work and lost all contact with Janice and her family. I visited her one last time at Gympie and I was told that she had moved and since passed away. It would be nice to complete Janice's life on my Family Tree. I don't have long to live myself. I will battle on.
Thank you again,
Wines65
