I met Janet when I was a baby. She was like a second mother to me growing up in Middletown. My mom, Sue Duff and Janet were very good friends their entire lives even though from a distance. Our families visited back and forth. They were golden friends.
She was the kindest woman I have ever known. She always had a smile.
My mom passed recently, and I know they are enjoying each other's company.
I miss you Janet.
