Janice. Just saying the name brings feelings of warmth and happiness to anyone who was lucky enough to come across such a wonderful person. She had the natural ability to bring out a smile at the most least expected moment, or give you a solution to a problem that you never believed you could solve on your own. I still expect her uplifting words of comfort when I call my parents' office- a quick joke or two to put me in a good mood for the rest of the day. No one will ever replace her in my life. She was a second mom, a friend, and a teacher; she asked for nothing in return. I can only give a summary of my life experiences with Janice because nothing short of a novel could even begin to describe what she has done for me. As bad as I feel for the Pomponio's and all the others who are filled with the utmost sorrow over her loss, I feel a lot worse for those who were never given a chance to be blessed with her company. Unfortunately, only the good die young. I love you Janice and I'll miss you forever!
