Dear Jean, Tom and families. I am sorry to be so slow in sending my sympathy to all of you. I always enjoyed my visits with your mom and dad. Your mom was one of the last of that generation and now only May and Elizabeth remain. With sympathy, Diane Anderson, [Marc (Kelly) and Lesli (Tyler)]

Jean and Tom: My parents, Gord and Marguerite Davis were close friends of Janet and Max. I and my brothers Jerry and Tom and my sister Carol grew up interacting with Janet many times over the years. Janet was a very positive and energetic person whom we all liked a lot. It is sad to learn of her passing. We would all like to extend our condolences.
