JANET HART Obituary

Janet DeEtta Hart Passed away on Thursday, February 3rd, 2011. Born in Tacoma, Washington to Cleo H. and Viola N. Stephenson on November 22, 1938, Janet attended school in Tacoma and graduated from Clover Park HS in 1956. Outside of 3 years in Hawaii, Janet and her surviving husband of 53 years, LeRoy E. Hart, resided in the Tacoma/Puyallup area her entire life. Janet's motherhood found her spending countless hours at the local dance studio supporting her children's desire for the art. Her 2nd joy provided 25 fulfilling years working as a florist at Crystals Flowers in Spanaway before retiring to become a full-time grandmother. Janet was a gift of love, joy and support to all she touched. Her joy for the holiday season will resonate with loved ones forever. Pink, Hawaii, family, and pure unconditional love = Janet Hart. Janet is survived by her husband LeRoy E. Hart, children Robert L. Hart, Terasa D. Hart, and Kristina M. Holst, 8 grandchildren, and 10 great-grandchildren. Services will be held in the Mountain View Aspen Chapel at 2:00pm on February 11, 2011

Dear Leroy and family,

I can only tell you that Janet was the type of person that once you met her, you would never forget her. May her fond memory live on in those who had a chance to know her. With thoughts and prayers, Pam Labrum, Silverdale.

Dear Leroy and family,
I don't know what to say - Janet left us all, much too soon in life! She had the most wonderful nature which always gave me a lift. She will be dearly missed. Remember - I'm here for you so call anytime.

Tina and family: Know that I'm praying for you and your family. I thank the Lord for His love and grace in your lives at this time. Even when we don't always recognize God's hand in a thing, we can have peace in knowing His plan is perfect. We prayed and watched as He was faithful to answer those prayers. It was this that gave you the ability to release your mom into His arms and ultimate healing. She completed the work God gave her to do and earned her rest. Now we must be busy finishing our part that we might join her one day. Proverbs 3:5,6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight. Love you. Tyrone

LeRoy, Robert, Terasa, and Tina,
I am sorry for your loss. I have many fond memories of our time spent together at Keller's Dance Studio. I know Mom spent countless hours with Janet drinking coffee at Dennys, sewing the outlandish creations of Mildred, and just being wonderfully supportive mothers doing what they loved to do; give their children opportunities and adventure. May God bless Janet and give her freedom from pain. My prayers are with your family.

Tina, I know without a single doubt or fear that your mom is sitting with Jesus, alive and warmed by His light and love. Althought it is most difficult for those of us left here, I also know that Jesus will give you not only the peace and comfort that you need but also moments of joy unspeakable as He shines His light and love on you as well. All my love to you and Jim and the girls. We are and will continue to pray for your family, support, care and believe for all of God's goodness to flood your heart and mind. Love Tyrone and Lloyal
