Janet was a wonderful individual and a true person of faith. She always helped family members and friends no matter the task. She drove countless miles to attend birthday parties, Christmas events, and baptisms and confirmations for her God Children. Janet always had a smile on her face and made everyone feel welcome and supported. My prayers and thoughts are with her family members and friends who will miss her. She is with the Lord, and I was privileged to get to know her.
My deepest sympathy to Janet’s family.
My memories of her are filled with kindness.
She sent me a card every Christmas and birthday.
It always felt like getting a hug in the mail!
She was a wonderful, classy lady.
I am so sorry for your loss.
So much joy Janet shared in her life! I am blessed to have known her. Prayers for her family.
