Janet was such a beautiful and kind person that I can only believe that she is up in heaven preparing a wonderful place for her family and friends to join her again someday. She was more like a sister to me than a friend and I will miss her dearly, but I know that I will be with her again someday.

My family used to live across the street from the Lowrys in the early 60's - mid 70's and Janet and I used to "hang out" a lot during the summer months. We had some fun times. I'm sorry to say I did not see Janet after graduation so never got to know her in our adult years. It sounds like she was a pretty special person. My deepest sympathy to the family.
