It was an honor to know her. God bless her dear family.
Our Senior Center family feels a deep sadness at her passing, yet we are also grateful for the long, beautiful life she lived and for the wonderful times we were blessed to share with her. Those memories will forever hold a special place in our hearts. We extend our deepest sympathies to her family, her many friends, and the entire community that was blessed to know such a genuinely sweet lady. Janets kindness was like warmth on a cloudy day, and her presence brought so much joy to those around her.
She will be deeply missed and fondly remembered.
I had the pleasure of going to Janet’s home from 4-8 pm each week day for a few month until I got sick 🙁 . She was delightful and we did puzzles and she would get down on the floor on her knees and look for puzzle pieces that may have fallen!!! and we ate dinner together every night. We watched the news, wheel of fortune and Jeopardy and sometimes two and a half men together. I looked forward to my time with her! I know she will be missed by many. Rest in Paradise ,Janet!♡♡
