Guestbook/Condolences

Throughout the years of friendship, beginning in junior high, Janet has consistently demonstrated her warm and compassionate nature. She always enjoyed visiting my mom and sharing her family stories. In memory of Janet, may her soul find eternal peace. I pray that her family find comfort in the cherished memories of her life as a devoted mother, grandmother, and wife.

Janet, you will always be a fixture from my childhood. I remeber fondly of you hanging out at my moms or the neighbors and always willing to walk and talk with all of us kids. I remember lying on the grass and looking at the clouds. You buying some of the homemade soup us kids made or whatever it was we were making. You were always so kind and always smiling. Thank you.
My condolences to your family. I am so sorry for the heartache and sadness.

I first met Janet when she was in high school. We had just moved into our home and she was walking by and stopped to talk. Throughout the years, she always stopped by to say hi. She was a very friendly girl. She was proud of her girls and her family. Many of us lost a good friend. My prayers for all of her family. Keep her in your heart and prayers.
