Nana Janet,
I will never forget you, all the fun and laughs we had in wood class. I want to thank you for being like a grandmother to me, and allways making me feel at home. You were a blessing to your family and friends. Now you are in Gods hands, rest and feel better. Say hi to my mom & dad and my sister for me, Mary's probably at the Jaialai in Heaven!
